    Computer kind of not sleeping


    So, my current situation is my computer will sleep but only when I skip turning off the display. I believe this is because my computer won't sleep when my lock screen slideshow is going. The only setting I have found to change this is in the advanced slide show lock screen setting that allows you to turn off the display after 30 min, 1 hr, 3, hr, or don't shut off. I was wandering if I was the only one having this issue and if there is another way to fix it?

    :)

    Hello.

    Does disabling the HID-Complaint Touch Screen driver resolves the issue? If yes, we suggest that you disable it and see if your device go into Sleep mode after a period of inactivity.

    • Press the Windows button + X, then click on
      Power Options.
    • Click Change when the computer
      sleeps.
    • Change the settings to your preferred settings.
