I recently started to have the problem where Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop prevents my Computer from entering sleep mode. Normally my screen turns off after 5 minutes and the PC will go to sleep after 20 minutes, but CC recently started to prevent this.
I have confirmed that CC Desktop is the culprit by using the following command:
powercfg -requests
which outputs the following:
DISPLAY:
[PROCESS] \Device\HarddiskVolume5\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Creative Cloud\ACC\Creative Cloud.exe
Video Wake Lock
SYSTEM:
None.
AWAYMODE:
None.
AUSFÜHRUNG:
None.
PERFBOOST:
None.
ACTIVELOCKSCREEN:
None.
When I kill the Creative Cloud procress, my computer is able to go to sleep again.
Why does this occurr and how can I fix this?
Diagnostic info:
Windows 11 Home 21H2 (Build 22000.795) x64
Creative Cloud Desktop (5.8.0.592):
Log collector filename: AdobeLogs_20220801_035626_314-win-GS.zxp
Thanks for the reply with the MVP information. I used this command line (mentioned by others here) via CMD and fixed it on one of my computers:
powercfg /requestsoverride process "creative cloud.exe" display system
Again, I only did this on one computer. The other computer was left as-is out of curiosity. I finally decided to see what might be causing the video wake lock from Creative Cloud. As it happens, I didn't find the root cause, but I *did* nail down that the fix for this issue do
