It's a long time problem - Windows 10 is shutting down instead of going to sleep or hibernate.
All the power settings are set to sleep/hibernate/nothing for power button/closing lid/idle etc. And still - sometimes it's just getting shutdown!
Any idea?

Are you saying your machine shutdowns instead of going to sleep/hibernate after a period of time. If that's the case you should say that specifically.

just to be sure, you understand that a hibernated system is effectively the same as a powered off system until you power it back on, at which point it goes through a long load phase (which it calls Resuming) before presenting a login screen. Correct? Some folks still thinkg Sleep and Hibernate are essentially the same thing, so just want to be clear.

Many people have had this error and oftentimes the cause is different, but I want to post a solution I found that completely solved it for me. This problem is caused by an erroneous driver in Windows (that is why Linux and Safe Mode work fine). In most cases, it seems that the device responsible is 'Intel(R) Management Engine Interface' (under 'System devices' in device manager). To solve the problem, you need to right-click and disable the device or roll back the driver to anything older than 11.xxx, don't uninstall the device because you will need to reinstall it manually if this does not fix the problem. For me, disabling it worked and the computer now behaves normally.
I know this will not fix the problem for 100% of cases, but this is the most commonly successful solution that I have found online. I have also found people saying sound card and graphics drivers are to blame, but I have not tested those so I am not sure.

So I had the same issue since the last Windows update (also an Asus laptop).
Finally managed to resolve it. I think what happened was that it somehow lost the original settings, became null or something.
To resolve just go to the power setting option and under the "When I close the lid" change it to "do nothing" and save. Then open it again and change it back to "Sleep" and save.
Should work now.

This seems to be in general related to power management of the device Intel(R) Management Engine Interface in Device Manager under System devices.
In device properties, You can uncheck/ untick the Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power option. This is described graphically here (also the source of the screenshots!).

Just solved the issue on my laptop. In my case, I had to update to the latest Intel MEI driver (or replaced it with the right version? See note below).
Steps I took:
- Went to Intel Download Center and searched for Intel MEI
- Looked for "Intel® Management Engine Driver for Windows 8.1* and Windows® 10", downloaded, and extracted.
- In Device manager, under
System Devices, I right clicked Intel(R) Management Engine Interface, then Update Driver -> Browse my Computer -> Browse. - Navigated and selected the consumer MEI driver under
ConsWindowsDriverPackagesMEIwin10
- Clicked next. I was informed that the driver had been successfully installed. The driver version reflected that, changing from
11.some.thinginto1904.12.0.1208
- Rebooted
On next reboot, I tested stuff out, and everything worked fine. The shutdown instead of sleep issue was fixed.
I'm guessing that Windows Update installed the wrong drivers for my laptop given that the version numbers are wildly different. In contrast to another top voted answer, I had to update as there was nothing to roll back to.

Finally managed to resolve it. I think what happened was that it somehow lost the original settings, became null or something.
To resolve just go to the power setting option and under the "When I close the lid" change it to "do nothing" and save. Then open it again and change it back to "Sleep" and save.

This seems to be in general related to power management of the device Intel(R) Management Engine Interface in Device Manager under System devices.
In device properties, You can uncheck/ untick the Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power option. This is described graphically here (also the source of the screenshots!).

Just solved the issue on my laptop. In my case, I had to update to the latest Intel MEI driver (or replaced it with the right version? See note below).
Steps I took:
- Went to Intel Download Center and searched for Intel MEI
- Looked for "Intel® Management Engine Driver for Windows 8.1* and Windows® 10", downloaded, and extracted.
- In Device manager, under
System Devices, I right clicked Intel(R) Management Engine Interface, then Update Driver -> Browse my Computer -> Browse. - Navigated and selected the consumer MEI driver under
ConsWindowsDriverPackagesMEIwin10
- Clicked next. I was informed that the driver had been successfully installed. The driver version reflected that, changing from
11.some.thinginto1904.12.0.1208
- Rebooted
On next reboot, I tested stuff out, and everything worked fine. The shutdown instead of sleep issue was fixed.
I'm guessing that Windows Update installed the wrong drivers for my laptop given that the version numbers are wildly different. In contrast to another top voted answer, I had to update as there was nothing to roll back to.

Thank you for your interest in this question.
Because it has attracted low-quality or spam answers that had to be removed, posting an answer now requires 10 reputation on this site (the association bonus does not count).
Would you like to answer one of these unanswered questions instead?
Are you saying your machine shutdowns instead of going to sleep/hibernate after a period of time. If that's the case you should say that specifically.

just to be sure, you understand that a hibernated system is effectively the same as a powered off system until you power it back on, at which point it goes through a long load phase (which it calls Resuming) before presenting a login screen. Correct? Some folks still thinkg Sleep and Hibernate are essentially the same thing, so just want to be clear.

@Ramhound not only after being idle for a period of time. I can choose manually sleep or hibernate and it will shutdown sometimes.

@FrankThomas Sure, I use hibernate when I'm going to be idle more time, so the battery is saved as it was off, but I still get all of my things as they were. And of course sleep when I plan using it again soon.
