Pretty much what the title says. My pc will sleep at night no problem but during the day it just refuses to sleep. Wen i try to put it at sleep it just goes to the login screen.

There may be something running (a program) that is causing your PC to stay awake.

unplug the network connection and see if it will sleep.
often the pc will act as a media extender and will talk to other devices on the network (other computers or a xbox)

you can also see what is blocking sleep functions by running cmd.exe or powershell as an admin then run
powercfg.exe /energy
and look at the report.

could also be your Ethernet setting for power management.
use control panel, find the device and right mouse click on it. make sure it is set to allow the device to sleep and wake on LAN is not set.

(disconnect from the network to test to see if the machine will sleep)

media servers on your machine can prevent your machine from sleeping.
(should show up on the powercfg.exe report)

That is because it is up during the day doing its job and at night resting up for the next day. Don't you sleep at night?

My power settings, When sharing media it's set to preventing idling to sleep i set it to allow the computer computer to sleep. If that doesn't work i'l unplug my ethernet cable.

Neither worked. Setting didn't work and unpluging cable didn't work either. I did the cmd thing the result is
Energy efficiency problems were found.

I'm looking at the energy report and haven't a clue what all of it is.

Never mind i figured it out. My pc was set to hibernate, once i turned that off it sleeps again normally.
