wake task

About this tag
The wake task tag covers discussions about Windows computers unexpectedly waking from sleep or hibernation, often due to scheduled tasks configured to wake the system. Users report forced restarts at specific times, such as 2:55 AM, despite disabling the 'Wake the computer to run this task' option in Task Scheduler. Troubleshooting typically involves checking for hidden or system tasks that may still trigger wake events, as well as reviewing power settings and hardware wake timers. This tag is relevant for Windows 10 and 11 users experiencing unwanted wake behavior.

    Windows 10 Forced restart at 2:55

    This is a variant of "Windows 10 won't stay in Hibernation". I've unchecked any tasks with "Wake the computer to perform this task" and in any case there is nothing scheduled for 02:55 and 14:55. Has anyone else experienced this?
