Mouso core worker process

My computer (Windows 10, 64-bit Build 19041) is constantly waking up from sleep and then going back to sleep for a short time only to repeat the cycle.  I ran sleep diagnostics on the Windows PowerShell as administrator i.e. powercfg /systemsleepdiagnostics.  The report from yesterday (5/31/2020) indicates that my computer awoke from sleep 50-55 times during the course of the day until at about 8:00 p.m., I decided that it was better to fully shut down the computer rather than have these continued cycles.  The common thread in all these awakenings from sleep is MoUSO Core Worker Process (MoUsoCoreWorker.exe).

This executable is a Microsoft programming element. 

 Why is this happening and what can I do to eliminate this totally annoying phenomena?

    Told you all a month ago.  No one seems to focus on how it doesn't effect all computers.

    Should I allow it? I am not so sure if this is good since it's an executable file.

    I'd like to update that I had tried the KB4568831 patch prior to August 11's Patch Tuesday with no effect (computer would not sleep by itself, nor stay asleep when manually done). MoUsoCoreWorker.exe continued to show in powercfg /requests .

    But after 3 days since August 11's cumulative patch, my computer has slept and stayed asleep by itself.
