VA is preventing Windows 10 from going to sleep. Tested many times with both normal window and compact mode

Have you enabled the "Enable Sleep Mode after X seconds of no audio activity" option on the "System / Advanced" tab of the VoiceAttack options window?

The Microsoft speech recognition system keeps Windows awake while it's active. That option works around that by shutting down the engine.

It worked, thanks a lot. I would recommend VA having this selected enabled for let's say 300 seconds (5 minutes) by default
