10074 Task Scheduler/Wake Timers not waking from sleep


Recommended Posts

Has anyone been able to have their computer wake automatically for scheduled tasks?

It seems to have been broken for at least a few builds.

 

Here is a discussion on the Insider Preview forums:  http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/insider/forum/insider_wintp-insider_perf/scheduled-tasks-not-waking-the-computer-from-sleep/745ad6ce-207a-4737-aa29-8401dabcfe75

 

I've tried creating a task that will run an app to test it, but it never wakes up.

Built-in maintenance task doesn't wake it either.

 

I can manually wake it with WoL packet or keyboard input, but timers don't seem to work.

 

I also tried installing the standard Windows 8.1 chipset drivers to see if it made any difference, but it did not.

 

I have provided feedback in the Feedback app as well.

 

Just wanted to see if anyone actually has this working or have any thoughts?
