Windows Event ID 32022 – Microsoft-Windows-Kernel-Power: System Power State Transition

Start by examining the specific details of Event ID 32022 to understand the power transition context.

1. Open Event Viewer by pressing Win + R, typing eventvwr.msc, and pressing Enter
2. Navigate to Windows Logs → System
3. Filter for Event ID 32022 by right-clicking the System log and selecting Filter Current Log
4. Enter 32022 in the Event IDs field and click OK
5. Double-click on recent Event ID 32022 entries to view detailed information
6. Examine the General tab for power transition type and timing
7. Check the Details tab for XML data containing specific power state information

Use PowerShell to extract and analyze Event ID 32022 occurrences for pattern identification and troubleshooting.

1. Open PowerShell as Administrator
2. Query recent Event ID 32022 entries:

   Get-WinEvent -FilterHashtable @{LogName='System'; Id=32022} -MaxEvents 20 | Format-Table TimeCreated, Id, LevelDisplayName, Message -AutoSize

3. Extract detailed event data including power transition information:

   Get-WinEvent -FilterHashtable @{LogName='System'; Id=32022} -MaxEvents 10 | ForEach-Object {
       [PSCustomObject]@{
           TimeCreated = $_.TimeCreated
           EventId = $_.Id
           Message = $_.Message
           Properties = $_.Properties
       }
   }

4. Filter events by date range to analyze specific time periods:

   $StartTime = (Get-Date).AddDays(-7)
   $EndTime = Get-Date
   Get-WinEvent -FilterHashtable @{LogName='System'; Id=32022; StartTime=$StartTime; EndTime=$EndTime}

5. Export results for further analysis:

   Get-WinEvent -FilterHashtable @{LogName='System'; Id=32022} -MaxEvents 50 | Export-Csv -Path "C:\Temp\PowerEvents.csv" -NoTypeInformation

Investigate current power management settings to understand the context behind Event ID 32022 occurrences.

1. Check current power scheme configuration:

   powercfg /query

2. List all available power schemes:

   powercfg /list

3. Examine sleep and hibernate settings:

   powercfg /query SCHEME_CURRENT SUB_SLEEP

4. Check wake timers and their sources:

   powercfg /waketimers

5. Identify devices that can wake the system:

   powercfg /devicequery wake_armed

6. Review power requests from applications:

   powercfg /requests

7. Generate a comprehensive power report:

   powercfg /energy /output "C:\Temp\energy-report.html"

Cross-reference Event ID 32022 with other system events to identify potential power management issues or hardware problems.

1. Query related power management events:

   Get-WinEvent -FilterHashtable @{LogName='System'; ProviderName='Microsoft-Windows-Kernel-Power'} -MaxEvents 50 | Sort-Object TimeCreated

2. Check for critical power events around the same timeframe:

   Get-WinEvent -FilterHashtable @{LogName='System'; Id=41,1074,6005,6006,6008} -MaxEvents 20 | Sort-Object TimeCreated

3. Examine hardware-related events that might trigger power transitions:

   Get-WinEvent -FilterHashtable @{LogName='System'; ProviderName='Microsoft-Windows-Kernel-Processor-Power'} -MaxEvents 20

4. Review USB and device power events:

   Get-WinEvent -FilterHashtable @{LogName='System'; ProviderName='Microsoft-Windows-USB-USBHUB3'} -MaxEvents 20

5. Check Windows Error Reporting for power-related crashes:

   Get-WinEvent -FilterHashtable @{LogName='Application'; ProviderName='Windows Error Reporting'} -MaxEvents 10 | Where-Object {$_.Message -like "*power*"}

Perform deep-level analysis using registry examination and Event Tracing for Windows (ETW) to understand complex power management scenarios.

1. Examine power management registry settings:

   Get-ItemProperty -Path "HKLM:\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power" -Name "*"

2. Check power policy registry entries:

   Get-ChildItem -Path "HKLM:\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\PowerSettings" -Recurse

3. Start ETW tracing for detailed power events:

   wpr -start power -filemode

4. Reproduce the power issue or wait for Event ID 32022 to occur
5. Stop ETW tracing and save the trace:

   wpr -stop C:\Temp\power-trace.etl

6. Analyze the trace using Windows Performance Analyzer or convert to readable format:

   tracerpt C:\Temp\power-trace.etl -o C:\Temp\power-analysis.xml -of XML

7. Review ACPI namespace for power management objects:

   Get-WmiObject -Namespace "root\wmi" -Class "MSAcpi_ThermalZoneTemperature"
