Windows 10: How to make Windows 10 laptop remain on all day--with the lid up and plugged in.

The Power/Sleep settings only offer options for turning off the screen or putting the computer to sleep--on battery or plugged in.

Laptop not sleeping when lid is closed and plugged in

Thanks, but nothing has helped.

But i have made some interesting observations.

When my laptop is running on battery and has been off the charger for a while and i sleep by closing the lid, it usually doesn't work and the fan still runs

But when I close the lid with a bit more force it recognizes and goes into sleep state

It doesn't work when its plugged in and pressing the power button doesn't make it sleep either.

I tried hibernating using the start menu but the fan remains on and i have to hard shut down every time

Any suggestions???

Thanks in advance

 

Lid setting does not recoginize power status change

We manage the policy to set the “When I close the lid:” setting on our laptops to "Sleep" on battery and "Do Nothing" on plugged in. In the basic scenarios, the results are expected:

• With the laptop plugged in, I closed the lid and re-opened. It was not in sleep mode.
  
• With the laptop running on battery, I closed the lid and re-opened. It was in sleep mode.
  

However, with the laptop plugged in, I close the lid and then unplug the power cable to put it on battery and then opened the lid. It is not in sleep mode. Is this an issue with the Windows 10 power management, or is there
a setting where this can be corrected?

Hi,

To assist you better, share the information.

- What power option have you set when your laptops' lid is closed? have you set the power option to Sleep or Hibernate?


I Suggest you to check with the Power options. To go to power options, press Start, type Power Options into the search space and select the same from the list, and follow the below steps:


1.On the Select a power plan page, click Choose what closing the lid does.
2.On the Define power buttons and turn on password protection page, next to When I close the lid, choose what you want your laptop to do, both for when it's running on battery and when it's plugged in.
3.Click Save changes.

Keep us posted if you need further assistance. We will be glad to assist you.

Thank you
