Question My computer keeps waking up from sleep

[ssal]

This is the spec of my build (Windows 10):

AMD Ryzen 7 3800X Processor

ASRock B450M PRO4 Micro ATX AM4 Motherboard

Corsair Vengeance LPX 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) DDR4-3200 Memory

Seagate Barracuda 2 TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive x2

HP EX920 1 TB M.2-2280 NVME Solid State Drive

Zotac GeForce GTX 1060 6GB 6 GB Video Card

Cooler Master MasterBox Q300L MicroATX Mini Tower Case

SeaSonic 520 W 80+ Bronze Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply I set the computer to go to sleep after 30 minutes. If I go to start>power and click sleep, the computer will go off. But the next morning, I will find the computer CPU fan and other fans running. It seems that it is being waken up in the middle of the night. Any suggestion?

Got pets?

Not sure I understand your question.

When I had my old system in the kitchen and would put it to sleep, sometimes if I would turn something else on in the kitchen, ie microwave, kettle etc it would wake my pc up because of dodgy house wiring. Could something similar be happening in your situation?

Not sure I understand your question.

I was wondering if maybe you had a cat, that could be stepping on your keyboard or touching the mouse. You can go into power settings and adjust things like the mouse and keyboard to where if they are touched it won't awaken the sleeping computer.

No pet.

I dig deeper trying to find out what's waking up my computer. Here's what I found in the scheduled task panel and I suspect that some hidden communications is waking up the computer although I had press the moon key to put it to sleep before I go to bed.

I called Nvidia and they help me to do a fresh reinstall without the Geforce Experience. They are very helpful and accessible.

I pressed the moon key before going to bed last night, and this morning the computer was still sleeping.

That seems to solve the problem.

I also delete the MiniTool and AVG virus emergency update.
