Wand preventing PC from going to sleep (video wake lock)

Hello

Recently encountered an issue after updating to Wand from WeMod
The PC app is preventing the computer from going to sleep if it is open or minimized EVEN WITH NO GAME running.
Running cmd powercfg /requests displays the Wand.exe “Video wake lock”.
Computer goes to sleep if closed to system tray instead.

Is there an option/command to make it so that the PC can still go to sleep even though Wand is still open?

Hey there,

Sorry to hear that you are having this issue at the moment. Could you please try reinstalling the Wand app as a troubleshooting step? This often helps resolve any local issues that might be causing the problem.

1.Use Add or Remove Programs or Control Panel to uninstall Wand.

2.Find and delete these folders:

-C:\Users\Your_Name\AppData\Local\Wand

-C:\Users\Your_Name\AppData\Roaming\Wand

3.Restart your PC.

4.Reinstall Wand by downloading from: https://wand.com/download

If the issue persists after reinstalling, just let me know—I’ll be happy to look into it further with you.
