Sleep Mode

Hi Folks
Windows 10 on my PC.
I set sleep mode to put computer to sleep after 2 hours of inactivity. This worked fine for a while, but now the computer does not do so.
Any ideas please?

Interesting as since updating last week, my battery drains quickly in sleep mode. OK if powered off.
I now wonder if this could be somehow related?
