Avast woke up my laptop from sleep today. When I took my laptop from its bag, the laptop was warm like it has been on for a while. This is the first time it’s happened. I recently registered for another year of the free version. I checked the command prompt and here is the info given.
Wake History Count - 1
Wake History [0]
Wake Source Count - 1
Wake Source [0]
Type: Wake Timer
Owner: [SERVICE] \Device\HarddiskVolume3\Program Files\AVAST Software\Avast\ng\vbox\AvastVBoxSVC.exe (AvastVBoxSvc)
What should I do to stop this from happening again?
To my knowlede, NG didn’t start on it’s own.
It was always a application that triggered it or the user himself.
Windows only sees that NG is running, but it can’t look inside NG to see what triggered it.
