In Windows 10, I can set up the PC to hibernate after certain time of inactivity using Task Scheduler. But this works when the CPU usage is under certain criterion: this is how Windows 10 defines inactivity. Can I hibernate PC after certain time (such as 15 minutes) of inactivity regardless of CPU or RAM usage? What I mean is to determine 'inactivity' solely by keyboard or mouse input.

  • Why not just use Windows 10 Advanced Power Settings. Hibernate can be set to Hibernate After Inactivity (Mouse / Keyboard) and should do what you want.

  • @John That advanced power setting determines 'idle' status by not only keyboard and mouse input but including CPU usage.

Have you tried settings --> system --> power & sleep? That's the usual setting for screen timeout.

  • I need to hibernate not just screen out.
