Hi
started using Hibernate mode all the time now, as it’s so much easier to resume work in progress, I am told it doesn’t use any more power than if the PC is shutdown.
BUT I need to prevent my wireless mouse from waking PC from hibernation. Have turned off option in mouse settings but made no difference.
thanks

You may also discover more by using the powercfg command (the above gives examples).
At a command prompt you can of course use
powercfg /?
etc to examine options. E.g.

Try go your Windows Device Managers and find Mice and Other pointing Devices click on your right mouse to properties tab choose Power Management then untick see below picture >

And go to your Windows Command type in search box ' CMD' run as Administrator
In the Command Prompt window, type powercfg.exe /hibernate off and press the Enter key. Exit the Command Prompt window.
Hope this help you! I have done on my PC it peace my mind and worked as charm!!
Already did this, made no difference, maybe because it’s a wireless mouse......going to look in dev manager & see if the mouse is listed as a keyboard...prefer to wake from hibernation with the keyboard, with mouse disabled, as the PC power button is a bit weak and prefer not to use it......
Re

Ok, here's the long version.. from my first link
This idea may or may not help you.
Problem: Windows 10 wakes randomly from hibernate
FIXED
finally after a month I found a fix
edit the registry Key
hkey_local_machine\software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\WinLogon
and modify PowerdownAfterShutdown and change it to 1
This fixed my laptop and for the last 2 days it has not turned on by itself
I think that one of the last 3 updates flipped the PowerdownAfterShutdown to 0
this caused the shutdown to not fully shutdown causing wake timer, task and other timer to wake the laptop
this bug has been around since Vista and also windows 7 where an update change the PowerdownAfterShutdown value
I guess the Microsoft's QC missed this setting
In troubleshooting this bug it apparent that Microsoft needs better tools for troubleshooting power issues including tasks and wake timers
Powercfg doesn't list all the timers where powershell does list different timers
Someone need to look at these tools and make them more better
Make sure to try the other suggestion in this forum it maybe a combination of this fix and the other suggestion

Hello
from reading the various articles, it appeared that aMouse is not a Mouse when it’s a keyboard LOL
so found two keyboards in DEV manager, disabled the second one & enabled the first in power up PC option and MAGIC.....now my keyboard wakes up my PC & the mouse does nothing, perfect, thanks for all the help....
