Windows 10 also won't run scheduled backups if it's sleeping. RDP and Acronis work properly if the computer is not asleep. Wake on LAN is enabled.

Click on (Start) or press key and type
device manager
and open the "Device Manager" window.
From here under "Network adapters" find the Ethernet Controller for which you would like to enable Wake-On-LAN (WOL). Right-Click on that Ethernet Controller in the "Device Manager" window, to open the context menu and select "Properties".
From the Properties window select the "Power Management" tab, and make sure to enable:
For some unknown reason, if both of these are not enabled then my machine would not wake.
Both activated, although the german translation is really strange and it's not obvious for me that "Aktivierung bei Musterübereinstimmung" is "Allow this device to wake the computer". I also believe this was working before the Version 1709 (Fall Creators Update) and is not working after that. Any ideas? – jan – 2017-11-15T16:52:54.947
Do you have the power saving options on your nic disabled? Make sure "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power" is not checked. You can find this option under the Power Management tab located in your network interface properties. – Stephen R. – 2015-12-17T01:53:33.183
