  1. Hello

    I have this weird problem on my Dell PC with windows 10 : when set to sleep, the PC awakes (around 1 time per minute) and goes back to sleep. I never had this problem with windows 8 and windows 8.1. I tried both solutions you provide, but the problem is still here.

  2. I ran the windows mode-line command :
    “powercfg -lastwake”
    that said :
    ” Source de sortie de veille [0]
    Type : Minuteur de sortie de veille
    Propriétaire : [SERVICE] \Device\HarddiskVolume5\Program Files (x86)\AVerMedia\AVerUpdate\AVerUpdateServer.exe (AVerUpdateServer)
    C:\WINDOWS\system32>”

    I deactivated the AVerUpdateServer service and now my PC sleeps quietly without awaking and going back to sleep every minute.
    Thanks for your help.

  5. I don’t going into rage mode but this SH@T IS RETARDED! Microsoft, fix your sh@t!!! The reason why the task’s settings are grayed out is because the Task Scheduler requires to be run as administrator. Okay, but the problem with doing that is that the stupid @ss thing crashes when you run it as admin. Snap-it couldn’t load blah blah. If you click on “Unload snap-it and continue”, you get an exception and this t@rd crashes. If you pick the first option “Report to Microsoft and close MMC (or whatever)” the thing crashes again. Windows 10 is a beta operating system. People complain about Linux being shit but it’s mostly voluntary work there and it’s (in most cases) free. Behind Windows we have this big fat @ss multinational corporation which basically has a monopoly over the desktop PC market when it comes to operating systems and abuses its position with f@cking sh@tty Windows. God damn it, I dumped this cr@p 3-4 years ago and only recently had to start working with it (more likely torture myself with it!) at work.
