Windows 10 Did AMD Radeon driver update now my PC won't enter timed sleep

[kgash]

I've been having problems getting PC to sleep after a period of time. With some help from this forum, it was fixed a couple of months ago.
Yesterday I had to reinstall drivers for my AMD graphics card and now I am back to the no sleep problem.
Anyone have any ideas

2. Disable Wake Timers:
- Open Command Prompt as an administrator.

- Make sure the selected power plan isn't preventing the PC from entering sleep mode after a specified idle time.

5. Run Power Troubleshooter:
- Press Win + I to open Settings.
- Go to Update & Security > Troubleshoot.
- Select "Power" and run the troubleshooter to identify and fix power-related issues.

6. Update Windows:
- Ensure your Windows system is up to date by installing the latest updates. Sometimes, new updates may contain fixes for power-related issues.

7. Check Event Viewer:
- Open Event Viewer (Win + X > Event Viewer) and check for any errors or warnings related to power/sleep issues. This could provide more insights into the problem.

By following these steps, you should be able to troubleshoot and resolve the issue of your PC not entering sleep mode after reinstalling graphics card drivers.
