Windows 10 Insomnia

After running for a little while with Windows 10 on our PCs at home, the most annoying problem is Windows 10’s insomnia.  It loves to wake up.  I run powercfg -lastwake or powercfg -waketimers to see what’s waking it up and it’s almost always Microsoft’s Update Orchestrator Reboot.  Try to disable wake timers on that scheduled task and Microsoft will just re-enable it.  It even wakes my wife’s laptop while it’s closed, which can’t be good as far as thermal issues.  I see other people out there are having the problem too.  Hopefully Microsoft fixes this issue at some point so you don’t find your PC awake every single morning?
