How do I stop Windows 10 from waking itself up from Sleep Mode?

this command works but still it doesn't tell me why my computer always wakeup at the same time

maybe network/bios config - power supply

That's the thing. Windows 10 no longer recognizes "powercgf -devicequery wake_armed". It keeps saying "powercfg is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

I am having the same problem.  My ASUS VIVOPC wakes itself from sleep every hour on the hour (sometimes as late as 5 minutes after).  It also starts itself up from complete shutdown approximately every two hours.  I also tried the powercfg command and received the unrecognized message.  This is a three month old computer and Asus insists this is a Windows problem and during the last terrible conversation with their support was told "Set the damn thing back to 8.1 and don't call again!).  I had called three times to no avail.  I do think it is a Windows issue but Asus should have received some training on Windows 10 since they receive warranty calls such as mine or t least had better customer service.

that awful of them..

interestingly .. in another thread on this theme of waking up unexpectedly.: A tip that was relevant to me was whether I was using Teamviewer. An older version was the culprit .

My system has stopped booting up on it's own for the past three days... not when Teamviewer has updated itself as it is showing the latest version .

Might be an issue for you?

I have a problem with getting my MS Surface 2 Pro to sleep. When I put ut to sleep, it wakes up after about 30-60 sek or so. So it will continue - after 15 minutes idle it will try to sleep again, but wakes up. I need to shut down every time so the battery ain't drained because of this :-(

I too have a Windows 10 PC with insomnia. I think it has to do with how Windows handles updates.

Choose How Updates are Installed*

Automatic (recommended) – Keep everything running smoothly. WE'LL RESTART YOUR DEVICE AUTOMATICALLY WHEN YOU'RE NOT USING IT. Updates won't download over a metered connection.

* 'Automatic' is an update and security a default. (Settings menu -> Update & security -> Windows Update -> Advanced options)

I had this problem but seems resolved now. 

I followed a tip I read somewhere else, and it worked. 

Go to the device manager, and go to the properties of your network adapter and under power management, tick only allow a magic packet to wake up the computer... and voilà!

Hope it helped you too.

That was the issue.  I have now had the computer in sleep mode for three hours and it has stayed as it should - asleep.

Thanks!

When I view the properties of the network adapter, I can toggle the power saving and wake options, but the magic packet option is greyed out. Anyone else getting this? I've reset my Surface Pro 2 about four times in the last two days based on advise from the Surface team and I'm still no closer to a solution. NOT happy at all.

its so awful that the OS doesnt recognize commands spelled incorrectly... powercgf  should be POWERCFG.

It works fine
