Windows is stupid

My desktop is in my room, and consistently every night at around 11 to 12 it wakes up from sleep, consequently waking me up. I did some troubleshooting and apparently it's doing "automatic maintenance"? I couldn't find a way to turn it off.

If any other devs have had this problem, please help, I'm getting sick of this.

In the advanced energy settings in control panel, i think there is a setting to allow that scheduled tasks can wake up the computer from sleep.

Your bios might also have an option to allow waking from scheduled events.

@DavidINC ? You have to first not into Windows before it does any update?

Try Safe mode
