Next time that you find your PC running, open an administrative command or powershell window and enter
powercfg -lastwake
This will then display what exactly is waking up your PC.

I see from your "System Specs" that you are using Windows 10. From what I have read elsewhere, Windows 10 has a tendency to reset the power-plan settings everytime a Windows update occurs. If your HTPC was working correctly, and it started misbehaving two weeks ago, could it have been due to a Windows 10 update?
I would suggest reviewing carefully all of your power-plan settings, to make sure that they are what you think they should be. Note that away mode should be enabled.
Are you using the "PowerScheduler" plugin? I would suggest using it in "plug and play" mode, with the "HTPC" plan selected.
If none of that works, install Windows 7.

The client part of "PowerScheduler" looks like you can specify a BAT file that you want to run when the HTPC is about to standby. I say "looks like", as the Wiki is not clear on what is supported
. (Or to put that another way, I don't understand it .) Start here and see if it helps you.On my system, I do something similar to what you want, but I don't use "PowerScheduler" to run the BAT file (I have a very convoluted setup to manage power-state changes). There may be other ways of closing the MP client, but the way that I use is for the BAT file to run an AutoHotKey script. The script sends keyboard shortcuts to the MP window to stop playback, invoke the exit dialogue, and select "close MP". My script won't work for you (it is too specific to my setup), but if you are a programmer you could write your own script to do the equivalent.

I did a check of MP 1.36 x64 on Win11 and I can confirm, that the TV server correctly detects running MediaPortal.exe process.

Ran into this problem following an otherwise sucessful upgrade from MP 1.34 x64 to MP 1.35 x64 the CEC Remote plugin which I use just to control volume and standby, will no longer put my devices (TV & AVR) to sleep when the HTPC is put in standby. Also when I wake up the HTPC MP closes or crashes (not sure which) as per the example in...

Since I played around with all the settings as per the previous posts and despite putting everything back to how it was, as far as I can tell, now when my HTPC wakes up to make a recording it no longer does so in away mode. I will probably do a restore from a backup in the hope that that will resolve the issue.:mad:

Most (all?) small PC cases accept only ITX motherboards, which have only one PCI-E slot. So you could install only one PCI-E tuner card. A quad-tuner card would give you four tuners, but if you wanted more tuners you would need to use the TBS eight-tuner card, or use external tuners, either USB tuners (available with single or dual...
