My Comuter randomly wakes from sleep. I have disabled all the devices that are able to wake my computer with the device manager. My computer seems to wake when ever it wants to. I look at the wake up reports and they are blank. I think it is windows update but have no idea I Ned help.
 
Solution
Have you gone to the advanced settings in power options and set allow wake timers to disable? Another option would be to go to Network and Sharing Center, Change Adapter Settings, Right click the ethernet adapter, Properties, Configure, Power Management and untick allow this device to wake the computer.
If it is a desktop pc connected with ethernet a possible issue could be network devices waking your computer.
Try rebooting and entering BIOS and look around for wake-on-LAN settings or other settings that pertain to waking your computer. Also, if you have an external mouse and keyboard, consider that they may be sending false movement data.
