  • Are you sure there is no mouse/keyboard that wake up the PC? You can use hibernate before the problem is solved.

  • What do you mean with "Reinstalled" exactly? - I have even reinstalled Windows, just in case something weird was up with the old install. - Did you installed Windows new and later used a safety copy of the old system or did you installed also all your required applications new on a fresh and independent windows installation?

  • Yes I am sure no mouse/keyboard can wake the PC accidentally. That would show up in the event viewer. Also, hibernate does not solve the problem because ACPI wake alarms wake the PC even in hibernate. When hibernating the PC still wakes me up. :) Commented Jan 22, 2020 at 13:57
  • By "reinstalled Windows", I mean I performed a fresh install. I did not restore a backup. Commented Jan 22, 2020 at 13:58
