Question Laptop turns itself on every day just before midnight if charger is plugged in ?

[BrokenTablet]

Everyday without fail, I have a dell precision that will turn on just before midnight if it has a charger plugged in. Since it occurred, I have updated BIOS 3 times, disabled Thunderbolt(TM) Controller, disabled power management over LAN, Disabled turn on on lid open & wake on usb-c dock (in bios), and Disabled Allow wake timers in power management. The issue has persisted and I plan to take the HDD out tonight to see if it happens then. Is there any other settings that I could look at to see if they're cause the issue?

Yes take out HDD, LAN cable, dock... to see.

Laptop turned itself on last night, no boot drive was plugged in. All BIOS settings mentioned in my 1st post are still in place.

Does it stay on, or turn back off after a while. Have you looked in task scheduler to see if there is any backups set to run at night?

Since its a dell see if there is any dell software running that is doing a backup as well.

It stays turned on, task scheduler was disabled. As far as I can tell there are no dell tasks running
