Wake source unknown

Hi forum hivemind,

I'm wondering if anyone has had an issue with their labtop turn on while transported without a known cause.

I've been to self help sites that have told me various solutions such as:

Win 10:

Command prompt/

powercfg -lastwake

And it comes up with no logged issues.

yet.

When I check Event viewer it comes up with(?) :

I take it the laptop is not plugged in at the time and simply wakes up when on Battery only?

Correct. It's a pain because it boots up in my backpack and overheats and burns out the battery. Not sure if the best solution is to put it in hibernation when I travel instead?
