Windows 10 goes to sleep outside listed sleep times
-
Sigh - these registry settings don't fix the issue.
And I'm starting to get more users complaining about this issue.
So far I only seem to be able to fix it manually via the GUI.
-
I figure I owe an update here.
These reg entries are in hex... 00000078 = 120 (seconds) in decimal. i.e. 2 mins.. sigh I completely over looked this. No wonder the times weren't changing.

I think I've figured it out.
The dwords need to be replaced with the hex value you want for the auto sleep after wakeup with no user interaction to kick in.
The value set in my example is 120 seconds (the default). You should make your values higher than your normal sleep timeout. Example, if sleep is set after 15 mins, you should use dword:00000384The three different sections are for
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\PowerSettings\238C9FA8-0AAD-41ED-83F4-97BE242C8F20\7bc4a2f9-d8fc-4469-b07b-33eb785aaca0] "Attributes"=dword:00000002 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\PowerSettings\238C9FA8-0AAD-41ED-83F4-97BE242C8F20\7bc4a2f9-d8fc-4469-b07b-33eb785aaca0\DefaultPowerSchemeValues\381b4222-f694-41f0-9685-ff5bb260df2e] "AcSettingIndex"=dword:00000078 "DcSettingIndex"=dword:00000078 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\PowerSettings\238C9FA8-0AAD-41ED-83F4-97BE242C8F20\7bc4a2f9-d8fc-4469-b07b-33eb785aaca0\DefaultPowerSchemeValues\8c5e7fda-e8bf-4a96-9a85-a6e23a8c635c] "AcSettingIndex"=dword:00000078 "DcSettingIndex"=dword:00000078 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\PowerSettings\238C9FA8-0AAD-41ED-83F4-97BE242C8F20\7bc4a2f9-d8fc-4469-b07b-33eb785aaca0\DefaultPowerSchemeValues\a1841308-3541-4fab-bc81-f71556f20b4a] "AcSettingIndex"=dword:00000078 "DcSettingIndex"=dword:00000078
So would the answer be
0
if you never want the device to Sleep? -
I had this issue with my HP Omen, but it went away after going back to Windows from Fedora...when I failed miserably to play games on Linux....lol
My workaround was just to turn sleep mode off. I just did this via the GUI in settings.

Yeah disabling sleep mode would solve the issue.

if you never want the device to Sleep?That's a good question - nothing I ran into showed that as an option. Everything pointed to just making it longer.
But this is a non issue if you disable Sleep mode completely.

Small update - something else to consider changing - disable Fast Boot.
Fast Boot means when you restart the computer, it doesn't do a full shutdown. It's likely that counters that are often reset upon a full reboot, aren't reset on a Fast Boot.

Fast boot used to be called hibernation. It is a fucking stupid nasty feature

I meant, they still have a separate function for hibernate. Why would they offer both, if they are the same thing?

You don't understand fast boot is hibernation. it is 100% the same thing. Just automatic.

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/drivers/kernel/distinguishing-fast-startup-from-wake-from-hibernation"... a fast startup simply loads the hibernation file (Hiberfil.sys) into memory to restore the previously saved image of the Windows kernel and loaded drivers."
This is a hibernation explanation is its simplest form.

Well that seems right on the verge of pointless. The OS itself doesn't take long to come up, and if my state is all lost, I've gone through 95% of the effort of powering down with only 10% of the benefit.

Seriously - who needs this? I surely don't. If I'm rebooting - it's because I need a kernel restart/reload, not as a way to kill all my applications - a logoff/logon does that.

For the record, at home, I use the actual hibernation on 3 desktops ALL THE TIME. I never actually use shutdown. I can wake them up using my phone from anywhere. When I am done, I hibernate. That isn't to say that I don't reboot them from time to time.
