Hi, after upgrading from windows 10 to windows 11, my PC keeps waking up
with the reason:
Wake History Count - 1
Wake History [0]
Wake Source Count - 1
Wake Source [0]
Type: Fixed Feature
Power Button

I've tried sfc /scannow, dism restore, chkdsk
I've tried changing power plan, disabling hybrid, disabling wake timers, changing a registry key (don't remember which exactly, something to do with Shutdown), disabling fast boot, physically disconnecting the power button from the mobo, updating to the latest win11 build, and yet, it still happens, and I'm out of solutions
Possible culprits:
Windows 11 update, and stuff I was doing to prepare: ran MBR2GPT on my windows drive, updated latest BIOS update, BIOS settings I've changed: disabling CSM, enabling Secure Boot and enabling TPM, setting Boot OS Type to UEFI Mode
Would very much appreciate help ! the only thing I can think of doing right now is a fresh install of windows 11, and frankly I'm not sure if it would help

specs if it helps:
GPU: GeForce GTX1070 Phoenix
CPU: Ryzen 5 3600
Motherboard: TUF B450M-PLUS GAMING
Ram: 2x8GB HyperX Fury DDR4 (1x2133mhz, 1x2400mhz)
SSD: 120GB SATA Kingston
HDD: 1TB SATA3 7200rpm 64MB Barracuda
M.2 SSD: 1TB WD_BLACK SN770
PSU: Corsair TX650M

To launch an elevated command prompt, simply press the Windows key; type cmd; press Ctrl+Shift+Enter.

Turn off Fast Startup and Hibernate:
Launch an elevated command prompt and copy/paste this into it and hit enter.
powercfg.exe -h off
Then reboot.


To see what is waking the PC:
Launch an elevated command prompt and copy/paste this into it and press Enter.
powercfg -devicequery wake_armed Then Enter. This will give you a list.

To disable:
IN the same elevated prompt, copy/paste powercfg -devicedisablewake "device name" Then Enter.

Replace device name with the exact name of the device from your list you obtained with the first command.
