sleep feature

My computer will not go to sleep on it's own. It has been set to sleep after 10 minutes of inactivity. This began about 1 week ago. I have reset this feature about 3 times but it still will not go to sleep.
Hi,
I am Vinu, an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft user like you. I will try to help you with this issue.

Have a look at the additional power settings as well, maybe you have a powerplant which overrides the windows settings. Let me know if you find anything useful there.

Please try changing your power plan to "Balanced" and see if it changes the behavior.
