    Are you sure it's sleep and not the monitor turning off?
    What do you have here?

    Temporarily you could download and install 'Don't Sleep' (freeware) - just search for it, install, run.
    Should stop sleep and let you use your PC.

    Remember to disable it when trying to fix your problem.

    1. Has your PC's sleep function ever worked properly with Win 10?
    2. Or has it recently started to sleep after 30s?

    What settings do you have here?

    Launch event viewer (just type event in the Cortana search bar)
    Look for Event Id 42
    What does it tell you about what caused the PC to sleep?

    I get a error message that a yellow triangle with iPhone in the heading and states that the unit has quit responding or disconnected. I do have a new iPhone, have I turned on something that reflects my computer maybe. I did down load some pictures two weeks ago.
