    4 You can now click/tap on an event log in the middle pane of Event Viewer to see its wake source. (see screenshot below)

    Kernel-Power logs with Event ID 507 can help reveal if a Modern Standby device may have waken from Connected Standby.

    thank you


    Thanks Brink

    I ran the command and gave me this

    Wake History Count - 1Wake History [0] Wake Source Count - 1 Wake Source [0] Type: Wake Timer Owner: [SERVICE] \Device\HarddiskVolume3\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Acronis\Schedule2\schedul2.exe (AcrSch2Svc)C:\Users\Manny

    I'm guessing its the Acronis, nice little command to know

    Thanks again, thank you to the other user asking me to check BIOS, I did that and reset BIOS :)

    Agreed. It looks like a wake up schedule for Acronis.

    Hello Lars,

    You could check to see if you have any active wake timers, and if any devices are allowed to wake the computer to see if one may be responsible.

    i tried... but still can't understand why my pc sometimes turns on from sleep state.
    PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> powercfg -devicequery wake_armed
    Intel(R) I211 Gigabit Network Connection
    HID-compliant mouse (008)
    HID-compliant mouse (012)
    Logitech HID-compliant Unifying keyboard (005)
    HID Keyboard Device (010)
    Logitech HID-compliant Unifying Mouse (005)

    maybe it is something related to my logitech k400 but sincerely i can't understant WHAT TO DO to stop the pc from groing out of sleep mode at random time.

    It could be your network adapter. As a test uncheck the Allow this device to wake the computer box for it using option 2 below to see if that may stop it.

    Unlikely, but possible something external is pinging your LAN and causing it to wake up. I've disable these two in my adapter to prevent the LAN from remaining powered up and active, even when system is asleep or powered off.
