Windows 10 wakes itself up to install updates
My Windows 7 PC wakes up randomly and powercfg lastwake shows nothing. What to do?Laptop waking up from sleep because of “power button”? (Windows 8.1)Windows 10 keeps waking from sleepWindows 8.1 Won't stay asleepWindows 10 wakes up at night although Update was completely finished a day beforeHow to completely destroy Windows 10 Updater?How to tell what wake source is when Wake Source: UnknownWindows 10 notebook computer refuses to sleep (wakes up immediately)My computer wakes itself after approx. 45 secWin10 workstation randomly wakes up
I recently upgraded my home desktop computer to Windows 10. Ever since I've done this, my computer has been waking itself up from sleep at seemingly random times during the night. This is incredibly annoying since I sleep in the same room as my computer and it wakes me up at 3:00AM.
After some research, it appears as though it is waking itself up to automatically install updates.
I've tried several things to disable this.
Go to "Power Options" in the control panel. Change plan settings. Change advanced power settings. "Sleep"/"Allow Wake Timers" is "Disabled".
I've used
powercfg -devicedisablewaketo disable all devices so thatpowercfg -devicequery wake_armedreturnsNONE.Wake on LAN is disabled on my motherboard.
In "Windows Update Settings", under advanced options, I've switched from "Automatic" to "Notify to schedule restart".
Finally, based on this Reddit thread, I've opened "Task Scheduler", gone to Microsoft/Windows/UpdateOrchestrator/Reboot, opened Properties and then the Conditions tab, and unchecked "Wake computer to run this task".
I thought the problem was finally solved after I turned off "Wake computer to run this task" in the reboot task for UpdateOrchestrator (the last bullet above). That seemed to solve the problem for several days. But then it happened again last night. When I looked today, the "Wake computer to run this task" option was checked again in Task Scheduler. I think the setting might have changed itself when I manually ran Windows updates a day or two ago.
This is driving me mad. How do I prevent my computer from waking itself up from sleep?

Run the Command from an elevated command prompt; see what it tells you.
C:>powercfg -lastwake
Example from my laptop:
powercfg -lastwake
Wake History Count - 1
Wake History [0]
Wake Source Count - 1
Wake Source [0]
Type: Device
Instance Path: PCIVEN_8086&DEV_8C31&SUBSYS_201F1043&REV_053&11583659&0&A0
Friendly Name: Intel(R) USB 3.0 eXtensible Host Controller - 1.0 (Microsoft)
Description: USB xHCI Compliant Host Controller
Manufacturer: Generic USB xHCI Host Controller
After thinking about it it occured to me that my Logitech universal dongle was the culprit as it was a HID complaint mouse... Simply disable that in Power management and you should be golden.
