W10 Update Fiddled with API's?

[RedDevilJoe]

Two updates ago, where my W10 HP tower would sleep with NextPVR arousing it changed, power on light out, fan halts.  Now the W10 update won't shut off the power light or fan and inadvertant wiggling of the mouse or hitting a key fires it back up to where it was.  I disabled via the device manager awakening from the mouse or keyboard.  But NextPVR won't awaken the computer.  Am I now stuck leaving the computer in a state where a mouse wiggle will wake it up because the application isn't compatible?

It is not compatibility NextPVR never actually wakes the PC it just sets a wake timer that the OS has to interpret. Nothing has changed here for years.

Perhaps instead of changing sleep behavior in device manager turn off wake by USB in your BIOS, or simpler put your mouse where it can't be jigged.

Thanks you for the quick reply. Came back from playing beach volleyball and it recorded the half hour except the timer didn't light up the computer in time and I got the last 5 minutes of NBC/ABC news and 25 min into local programming. So indeed it is a timer issue. I'll see if once again reloading NextPVR and see if it captures the full broadcast news. The computer displayed clock is in agreement with alternative times from my cell phones. If there is a corrupted data set that needs clearing, I wouldn't know where to look. Thanks again!

Reloading NextPVR seems like a waste of time, uploading the zipped logs from the web settings page might help.
