For some time already it not sleeping automatically

I have tried to do all possible things to fix it ,and now i have found out that it is Skype which is preventing computer from sleeping ) ANd i saw there are people having same problem but on Windows )

As i read what people say = problem is in a Skype updater services,i dont know how can i delete this maybe ,cause all setting i have are good )

HI ! That problem with kext is old , and it have been solved in a very simple way ,there i have posted - (i was not a kext problem) it was easiest solution i just needed to delete this file- com.apple.PowerManagement.plist and com..apple.AutoWake.plist files

I even felt silly that after doing so many operation with computer it was so obvious
