Hibernating laptop changes to sleep behaviour after Windows 10 May 2019 update

Hi Aditya,

Thank you for your reply. I have tried the two steps (turning of Hybrid sleep and Fast startup) you suggested but to no avail. Okay, for your two questions:

1. My laptop is a HP Pavilion 14-bf101tx, and currently running Windows 10 1903 (upgrading from 1809).
2. Nope. No error messages. I suppose the boot process was successful, however, my battery was reduced. That's why I suggest the post title as "Hibernating changes to sleep behaviour" because the battery level reduction looks like sleep behaviour.

Please inform me of any diagnostics information you might need. Thank you for your kind assistance.

 

Windows 11 is not sleep or turn off screen

Dear Microsoft Support Community,

I'm reaching out because I'm encountering an issue with my Windows 11 operating system on My ROG Asus laptop. Specifically, I've noticed that despite configuring the sleep settings in Windows, My laptop does not enter sleep mode or turn off the screen after the designated period of inactivity(but rarely and randomly it does!).

Here are some details about my system:

• Laptop Model: G513
  
• Operating System: Windows 11(22635.3209 Beta Insider)
  

I've tried adjusting the sleep settings through the Control Panel and Power Options, ensuring that the settings are configured correctly to initiate sleep mode after a specified duration of inactivity. However, even after setting these parameters, My laptop remains active indefinitely without entering sleep mode or turning off the screen.

This issue is concerning as it affects the battery life and overall performance of my laptop. I've also checked for any pending updates or driver issues that might be causing this problem, but everything seems to be up to date.

Could you please provide guidance on how to troubleshoot and resolve this issue? I would greatly appreciate any assistance or suggestions.

 

PC turns on straight away after sleep mode is on

Hi Danny,

Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community. We are sorry for the inconvenience caused.

I see that you system is still on even if the sleep mode option is turned on. This might be due to the change in the power plan settings.

Please follow the below methods and check if it works,

Method 1: I suggest you to run in-built Power troubleshooter and check. Follow the steps:

• Press Windows Key + X.
• Click on Control Panel.
• Select Troubleshooting on the left pane, click on
  View All.
• Click on Power to run the troubleshooter.

Method 2: If the above method doesn’t help, I would suggest you to reset and restore all of the default Power Plans back with their default settings. Follow the steps.

• Press Windows Key + X.
• Type Power Options and then Enter.
• In the left pane Select Change when the computer sleeps.
• Select Restore default settings on this plan.
• Restart the computer and check with the issue.
