My PC is connected to a UPS, but its battery is shot so occasionally power spikes cause my PC to power off. The issue is that it tries to power back on by itself immediately, but gets stuck in a kind of limbo state that needs the reset button to be pressed or the PSU to be power-cycled. This is usually not a hindrance to daily use but me and my whole family are going to be traveling till the coming Sunday, and I need to be able to access the desktop whenever I need. Is there any way to keep the PC fully off and then remote start it using a phone, or “hit” the reset button remotely using a phone?

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Cheers!
