Setting up a Win 10 PC for shares, videos, which will be used lightly. I would like to have it sleep, and not have to do a separate operation to wake it with a magic packet before accessing. Is this possible? Any suggestions appreciated.

I can put my system to sleep and it will wake up after about 5 seconds. I found something I had not seen before and was wondering if anyone knew what it was. As far as I know, I do not have any streaming music happening. I just changed my power settings to see if the Multimedia Streaming...

After only 35 yrs in the general purpose OS business, MS cannot devise a reliable "wake from sleep" scheduler. The task scheduler can shut down, or sleep, but not awake with any hope of reliability. The BIOS can set a base "power management" start-up, but it is insensitive to refinements in...

Simple and straight forward as the title says. When I choose to put my computer into sleep, just about 2 seconds after it goes into sleep mode it starts up again. I found the problem, but I have no idea what it means or how to fix it. Also, my computer never goes to sleep on its own even...

I was running Windows 7 for a long time with no problem. It would sleep and wake up just fine. One day, it would not go to sleep any more. I never got to fix it before upgrading to Windows 8. After upgrading, the system still would not go to sleep. I did some research and basically found...

Now what I want to know is if the bios acts the same as the actual bios setup in my computer. And also, there is a Wake on Lan option in the VMWare player bios setup. Now does this really...

Is there a way to prevent my system from waking up from sleep unless i press the tower power on button? Like prevent keyboard taps, mouse clicks & so forth? Just that my system is waking up on its own for no reason when i put it to sleep & its annoying me. Thanks

Consider the following scenario: You have enabled "Allow wake timers" setting on current power policy in Power Options item in Control Panel. You set a Scheduled Task to wake the computer 1 month and 10 minutes later: For example, If the current time is... Link Removed

All of a sudden my logon screen appears telling me it's locked after hibernate/sleep mode is unactivated by mouse/keyboard movement to awake computer. I have to click the icon to get into my desktop. This just started about 12 hours ago and I can't get it fixed.

When I unplug a device (mouse, cord to speakers, keyboard) this wakes my computer from sleep mode. The instructions I have found to edit this setting all pertain to Vista or earlier models, none to Windows 7. How can I change this setting so Windows 7 no longer wakes when devices are unplugged...

I've unchecked "Allow this device to wake the computer" for the Ethernet device. My bluetooth mouse and keyboard have both been checked to "Allow this device to wake the computer" which is right, yes? I do want to be able to wake my computer via mouse or keyboard. I'm running Avira Antivir...

Hello I've run into a problem, my Disk0 is disappearing in windows 7 after I wake my computer from sleep mode. At first I thought the problem was caused by lilo (a linux bootloader for those that don't know). I disabled lilo by running bootsect for my Winodws 7 install disk. It turns out lilo...
