Hi,

My computer keeps waking up from hibernation. I have read that the problem is probably that someone is urging for it's attention without my permission. At least not my intention...

I have used powercfg and the result is as following:

C:\Windows\System32>powercfg -waketimers
There are no active wake timers in the system.

C:\Windows\System32>powercfg /devicequery wake_armed
Thunderbolt(TM) Controller - 9A1B
Realtek USB GbE Family Controller

Now what? I have read tutorials that tells me to disable wake timers but those settings are not available for me. I have tried to shut down the Thundebolt process manually but that didn't seem to work.

Also, look in BIOS for WOL settings (Wake On LAN).
If this is enabled, and the PC is asleep, and it detects network traffic, it'll wake up.
