There is a very good article on How to Prevent Your Computer From Waking Up Accidentally, but you shall notice
Power Management
tab andAllow this device to wake the computer
is missing fromDevice Manager -> Mice and other pointing devices
.Sleep -> Allow wake timers
is missing fromPower options -> Change plan settings -> Change advanced power settings
If the above happen, there is high chances your Windows 10 is using Modern Standby. This is supposed to be a new tech from Microsoft to allow your notebook to behave more like a mobile device (sleep light, fast awake). But 2 things really irratate me:
- When I close the notebook lid (or put the notebook into sleep mode), accidentally move the mouse or touch pad would wake it.
- If you switch off the power or unplug the power cable, the notebook would wake up as well
The is no way to disable mouse and power wake, except to disable Modern Standby
.
Click on Win10 Search
, type regedit
and click on run command
. Goto HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power
, modify CsEnabled
and set the value to 0
(original is 1
). Restart the notebook and you shall get back the good old fashion reliable Windows sleep.
