  1. How to enable Sleep option.


    i am not able to get a sleep option when i hit the power button in the start menu.

    also, in power settings, i cant see the option which allows you to put your computer to sleep after the lid shuts down.

    its like the sleep option no longer exists.

    >.<

    Sleep option

    Hi John,

    The issue might be due to a disabled sleep to show in Power menu
    option in Control Panel.

    We would like to ask for some information:

    • Did you get any error messages?
    • Can you provide us with a screenshot?

    In the meantime, please check if the sleep to show in Power menu
    option in Control Panel is enabled using the steps below:

    • Type Control Panel on the search box and press Enter.
    • Select System and Security, then Power Options.
    • Click on Choose what the power buttons do.
    • Put a check-mark on the Sleep-Show in Power menu box.

    We will wait for your response.

  3. Sleep option

    Hi Remon,

    I tried what you suggested, but I did not see a sleep option listed in the settings for the power options. There was a "hibernate" option, but I don't think that is the same as the sleep option which I had prior to the last update. Also, since the update,
    my graphics, images, and fonts are slightly distorted.

    Thanks,

    John

    How to enable Sleep option.

    Getting out of sleep

    Hi,

    For us to further isolate the issue you are experiencing, kindly respond to the following questions:

    • Does your device automatically returns to sleep after a short period of time?
    • Have you made any significant changes prior to the issue?
    We suggest that you check if the Allow wake timers setting is enabled. To check if it is enabled, follow the steps below:

    • Click the Start button, then type power options.
    • Click Power Options from the results.
    • On the Power Options windows, click Change when the computer sleeps.
    • Click Change advanced power settings.
    • Expand the Sleep category.
    • Expand Allow wake timers.
    • Change the desired setting.

    We look forward for an update from you.

    Regards.
