If you are so inclined, you can read this thread: Find Wake Source for Windows 11 Computer

Or you can just go to Device Manager and disable "wake" on whatever woke your computer up, example mouse, keyboard, or network card.

I find I have to do this every once in awhile.

Network adapters are a common cause of this problem.

Go to Device Manager > Network Adapters and right click your network adapter(s). Click on the Power Management tab.
Untick "Allow this device to wake the computer".

Are you running anything in the background that may interfere with sleep or hibernate?
Or something like desktop live wallpapers?
Anything in the system tray like game related or chat related apps running?

Check the event log, might be a clue there. Mine wakes up from the keyboard, here's the log entry for what woke up the computer.
