My computer, after the Windows 10 update, keeps rebotting after I hibernate. I can't remember if it does this for a regular shutdown. I tend to push the power button to prevent it from booting Windows.
I did go and disable "allow this device to wake" in Device Manager and I don't think I've been using any other peripherals.
Please help me if you get a chance. Let me know what I should try. Thank you.
One other thing (unrelated) that maybe someone can help suggest:
I bought an Oduo bluetooth adaptor but I didn't build my PC with a CD drive. I haven't been able to find drivers and it's unlikely I'll be able to ask a friend to rip an ISO. Am I stuck with this CD I can't use? I don't see a website.
Hello sanman, and welcome to windowssh blog.
You can check using the tutorial below to see what is listed in the wake source log to help ID what is waking the PC.

Regarding the drivers, go to Windows Device Manager, look up the VID/PID string of the USB device, search on Google for that string.
I recall trying that in the past. I followed those instructions, now, and the wake source is "Unknown". Hopefully this computer nonsense can be resolved. Bought this thing so it wouldn't crash, installed a clean Win7 and upgraded to Win10. Never can win with these machines. Win10 has been pretty great otherwise and I hope to explore.Hello sanman, and welcome to windowssh blog.

My PC is still doing this.
Anything ever show up in the wake source log?
For now, you might see if turning off fast startup may help.

Ok. I've followed those instructions. Hopefully this solution can work.
Computers often seem to require much oil and labor. Maybe it's just me, but I swear there's more internal utilities, file syncing and network i/o apps, anti-virus, etc. than functional communication or media or web browsing apps. At least I got a fast PC.
Nope. No dice. I've found my PC turned back on after hibernating these past few nights.
Wake Unknown, but possibily due to timer - Windows will execute 'NT TASKMicrosoftWindowsMedia Centermcupdate_scheduled' scheduled task that requested waking the computer.
and also sometimes just says "unknown"
Hello sanman,
That's odd since Window 10 doesn't have Media Center included in it.
You might see if using the tutorial below to disable it from waking the computer may help.

Ok I really remember why I wanted to avoid PC problems and get the highest end PC and had done a clean install. Maybe I should reinstall yet another time, but computers will always do this.
So, now I'm still getting unknown and also sometimes this error:
Wake Unknown, but possibily due to timer - Windows will execute 'NT TASKMicrosoftWindowsUpdateOrchestratorReboot' scheduled task that requested waking the computer.
