    Question Why does my Acer Aspire V turn itself on hours after powered off and continues to drain the battery overnight ?

    P.S. : In Advanced Power Settings I discovered a box "ALLOW WAKE TIMERS" was enabled ! This is prob what is turning my L/T on at night as the other solutions above did not work. I Disabled it, but am considering to Enable : Allow for Important Wake-Ups ????

    In TASK STATUS it shows nothing has run in the last 24 hours. which is incorrect, as it drained my battery last night. However, in ACTIVE TASKS it lists 120 active/enabled tasks.

    As in anti-virus program ? Yes, A/V (Avast) and Malware programs have been run x2 every week, multiple dozens of times per year.

    If battery is in or the power-cord is still attached but the L/T is powered off, regardless the H/D turns itself on and is running although the screen is not on. The battery is drained overnight. The blue H/D light is on. Something is running in the background overnight !
