Hi Aswari, AdaptiveSleepService.exe is more commonly known as AMD Start Now
AMD Start Now is basically a power management application, for computers equipped with AMD APUs, you can use AMD Start Now to manage sleep settings based on the usage patterns of individual PC users
Hi Aswari, just checking in, is there anything else I can help you with regarding this matter?
Hi Aswari, I am not familiar with that software, but there is a possibility it is fighting with the built in Power Management in Windows 10 and that is causing a conflict resulting in that behavior . ..
Hi Dave!
sorry for the late reply. So, maybe this is why my Laptop turn itself on from the off-state to stand by, isn't it? I notice it turns on every 3 am and 9 am as I start working at those time.
