    Device restarts when asleep


    I have a Dell XPS 8960, reconditioned, running windows 10 latest buildWhen I put the device to sleep upon wake later, all open browsers and programs have closed. I get the "Edge did not close properly" or "Chrome did not close properly" message - which obviously should not have happened because the device was asleepThis is a recurring issueWhen this happened before the device was running windows 11. Dell replaced the HD and included a windows 10 diskI installed windows 10 and the issue did not occur for a while.It has now returned

    I suggest you to follow the methods below and check if it helps.

    Method 1: Windows has a built-in troubleshooter to check and fix issues with Hardware and Devices. I would suggest you to run this troubleshooter to check if the issue
    is with your Devices.

    Refer these steps:


    • Press Windows key +X, select Control panel.

    • Change the view by option on the top right to Large icons.

    • Click on troubleshooting and click on the view all option on the left panel.

    • Run the Hardware and Devices.
    If the issue persist I suggest you to follow method 2.

    Method 2: I suggest you to updating the latest USB devices from the manufacturer's website and check if the issue persists.

    Follow the steps to update the USB drivers:

    a. Press Windows key + X key and click Device Manager.

    1. Press “Windows key + X” and click on “Device Manager”.
    2. In the list of devices, you should see the touchpad drivers.
    3. Right click on the device and then select "Uninstall".
    4. In the uninstall dialog, make sure you select the option to delete the driver package from the system. This causes the driver package installed earlier to be deleted.
