You must update them either from the device/program manufacturers website, or in some cases, on the system builder's support website.Īs no information was given about the system involved, I'm afraid I can't be more specificĪs for sleep - it is very affected by drivers. Updating through Device Manager won't work - it only offers drivers that are present on Windows/Microsoft update servers. Does anyone have any ideas? I would be happy to provide any more information if it is needed, I wasn't sure what all was relevant. Googling 'powercfg requests is clear but computer won't go into sleep mode' hasn't been particularly helpful, either. I used to have such a program a long time ago, but I have forgotten the name of it, and googling 'sleep timer' just shows sleep mode tutorials. Ideally I would like a fix for this, but I would also be okay with some kind of program that puts my computer into sleep mode after 30 minutes. When it won't go into sleep mode, it won't even automatically turn off the monitor. Currently, powercfg -requestsoverride shows process: chrome.exe display system awaymode, driver: \filesystem\srvnet system.

Whenever I check, powercfg -requests is clear. It will go into sleep mode if it's freshly booted.

My computer won't go into sleep mode if it's been on for a while.
