Hey everyone, I've been having a strange issue with my PC. For the past couple of nights, my grandma has been sleeping in my bedroom where my computer is. I noticed every morning that even though I shut the PC down the night before, it turns back on by itself. The weird part is, when I check it in the morning, the monitor is still off, and I can't see anything on the screen. However, I can hear the fans and the CPU cooling system running. Does anyone have any idea why this might be happening? I'd really appreciate any help. Thanks a lot, and have a great day!

You might want to check if there's a master power switch on the back of your PC. After you shut it down, flip that switch off and wait a few minutes before turning it back on. This can sometimes help prevent it from unexpectedly waking up.
Should I be doing that every time? I thought leaving it on was better.
