Any Chance my Keyboard and/or Mouse Wake Up the OS?


Hello, I usually put PC on standby. Sometimes I would find my PC working be it after a few hours or in the morning. I was wondering whether keyboard or mouse could be he cause. Here are some reports that might assist: https://postimg.cc/gallery/d7q57XH OS: Windows 10 64-bit Keyboard: Razer Cynosa Lite Mouse: Logitech G203 Thanks

It may be worth checking in the computer BIOS/UEFI settings. Depending on who your computer manufacturer uses for it's BIOS/UEFI, it's possible there may be a setting you need to enable to allow USB devices (I.E. Your USB keyboard or mouse) to wake the machine from an S4 sleep state (S4 = Hibernation). It may be called something like "USB S4 Power" – which would need to be set to "On".

@HereturbiesWalt Perhaps I was not clear in my question. Something wakes up my PC from standby (hybrid sleep state) from time to time and I don't know whether it is keyboard or mouse. Both are capable of waking up PC on-demand when I need. How to find out if it's keyboard or mouse that wakes up the PC?
