Quick self starting question?

[Garlicknottz]

Hello everyone, I built my new gaming computer a few months back; usually when i'm not using it I shut the son of a bitch down. Recently it has been turning on randomly turning on at night time, at first I assumed it was doing auto-updates, since night time seemed to be an ideal time for my PC to pull such a move. But I have it set to no auto-updates, and when it does randomly turn on at night it doesn't seem to be updating (At least I don't think so), it just stays at the lock screen with no "configuring windows", or "windows update". So anyone have an answer? Im pretty sure its not a ghost, but worse comes to worse ill get a priest to bless my room or ill stick the holy cross in the case... Hahaha Just kiddin, but for real any ideas? Thanks in advance, i'm sure its a simple answer that I just lack knowledge of...

Search through the BIOS whether it has set to start the computer at a given time.
Is it the same time or is just staring randomly?

No it's quite random, maybe every other 4-6 days at any given time after 12 at night.

In your BIOS see in power section there should be something called
Power on by RTC , Power on by pcie etc.
Try setting them to disable.
