Wait, why are you running a sched task? You can just set your pc to never sleep or hibernate...He thought he did so last time but it might've locked up or something.

This is probably what you want to look into.
Rather than perpetually keeping it awake, just be able to force it to wake if for some reason you eff up and change the wrong settings again.
There's sometimes also a bios option that does the same thing as another fail safe.Wait, why are you running a sched task? You can just set your pc to never sleep or hibernate...
Windows doesn't actually seem to respect this setting, at least on my laptop.

Looked into this previously, not an option for me
Even if you do things like wakeup on lan it doesn't guarantee that your router won't crash and not properly reboot and leave you in the same situation.
The nearly most secure setup would be to have a gsm enabled smart switch to be able to turn off everything connected to that smart switch, then back on (for hard rebooting purposes).

Then you have the wake up on LAN to turn it on remotely.
There's still the chance for the breaker to flip though, and I have no solutions for that.
I know that's bad but someone tell me why. (I understand the fuse has been permanently fixed on.)

breakers jump so in case of a shortcircuit the whole thing doesn't catch fire.

Why is it not an option?
That'll just start command prompt and exit it. No harm done.
And task scheduler has a specific option for making sure the computer wakes from sleep to execute the task, so it should work, especially if you check that box.
edit: I see the article covers the "wake from sleep" checkbox; so yeah that'll work and not be harmful
