I have an older Asus Zenbook (UX331U), upgraded to Win 11 (I bought it used, with the upgrade already done).

Its driving me nuts that, no matter what settings I tried, both inside Windows, even some registry tweaks, and a full reinstall/repair, it still goes to sleep after 30 minutes or so. I use this particular laptop to stream TV series/movies onto the Smart TV (thru Plex) and its very annoying when the laptop goes to sleep, pausing the movie.

I’ve tried also using other programs to keep it from going to sleep, like PowerToys, also using a torrenting program that was set to prevent sleep, but none of these things made a difference, I’m starting to think this laptop is possessed, to annoy me 

The only thing I have not tried to do is put Win 10 on it, that would be like a last resort that I’m trying to avoid doing, but I’m thinking to, just to see if the behavior would be gone on Win 10 or not. I already have, and even older Asus Zenbook, with Win10 on it, and on that one the behavior I wanted, preventing sleep thru settings to be able to stream from it, was never and issue, it would turn off only when running out of juice, or never if plugged in and if I, for example had Utorrent running and downloading/seeding something on it.

What sort of logs/events could I extract here to be able to understand the reasons behind?
