HOW TO MAKE YOUR PC WAKE FROM SLEEP AUTOMATICALLY
Sereivann HeanWeek 15 Lab Activity, Applications I - CS 101 Section 4
To have the computer automatically wake up, we’ll create a scheduled task. To do so, open the Task Scheduler by typing Task Scheduler into the Start menu and pressing Enter
In the Task Scheduler window, click the Create Task link to create a new task.
Name the task something like “Wake From Sleep.” You may also want to tell it to run whether a user is logged on or not and set it to run with highest privileges.
On the Triggers tab, create a new trigger that runs the task at your desired time. This can be a repeating schedule or a single time.
On the conditions tab, enable the Wake the computer to run this task option.
On the actions tab, you must specify at least one action for the task – for example, you could have the task launch a file-downloading program. If you want to wake the system without running a program, you can tell the task to run cmd.exe with the /c “exit” arguments – this will launch a Command Prompt window and immediately close it, effectively doing nothing.
Save your new task after configuring it.
