    Sleep settings are on 15 min but Windows 10 goes to sleep after 2min


    Dear friends,

    My Windows 10 goes to sleep after 2 minutes although I set it on 15 minutes?
    I have a password on my PC, does this matter?

    Please advise.


    Kind regards,

    Hi, there are numerous threads on such a topic. Examples:
    Laptop goes to sleep after 2 minutes while plugged in
    Computer goes to sleep 2 minutes after last command
    (There you can see there are many threads you could research to suggest ideas - searching with 'solved' can help).
    Windows 10 sleeps after 3 minutes, no matter what.

    Add system Unattended Sleep Timeout to Advanced Power Options, then adjust to match your desired sleep times.
