    My screen turns off in 30secs no matter what screen time off setting its on.


    My screen turns off in 30secs no matter what screen time off setting its on.I recently bought a New Microsoft Windows 11 Lenovo Slim 7i Laptop. I noticed it behaves strange when it comes to screen turning off time. It turns off the screen every 28 - 30 seconds every time i keep it idle. I tried to change the screen time settings to 5 mins, 30mins, 1 hour, etc on all modes Power plugged in and on battery. But the changes doesn't take effect and it still turns off after 30 secs. Only if i keep the Screen time to "Never" it doesn't turn off and lock but this drains the charge. Please help/s

    :)

    Tips to teach you to set the screen time for Kids

    For young children, or even teenagers, some parents find it beneficial to limit the number of hours spent in front of a screen. If you also agree with this, Windows 10 allows you to reserve a number of hours that your child can spend each day in front of your computer.

    It is a great system and very easy to use.

    1. Click on the Start button and select Settings from the list of available options. Then choose Accounts.

    2. Select Family and others in the sidebar on the left side of the screen.

    3. Verify that you have set up a child account. If yes, click on the Manage family settings online option.

    4. Log in to your Microsoft account if you have not yet logged in.

    5. Select the time on the screen below your child's name.

    6. From there, if you want to apply a single schedule to both the Xbox screen and the computer screen, you must change the time of use of the screen. If it does not, turn it off and turn on the device you want to monitor.

    7. When this option is enabled, you can choose from several options, including a fixed number of hours per day or a specific number of hours. To do this, click on Max scheduled and select the period you go to.

    8. In the previous example, I selected a time. Now, I can choose when I want the child to spend the hour. First click on the calendar. Then, select the time you want to allow and then click Add. In this case, child would have one free hour on Sundays and should use it between 9 am and 12pm.

    9. Finally, Click on Save.
