    Windows 10 How to find last wake device ?

    This is what I'm seeing: How can I trace down who 4&232151f9&0 is? Under Device manager I can see (5) ROOT_HUBs so that doesn't help. All of them removed allow under power management. Any ideas how to precisely find out which one is responsible? Thank you in advance.
