    Laptop playing videos by itself, when I close the lid. I need help


    It isn't the first time it has happened to me, when I turn my pc on after i closed the lid and turn up the volume most of the time there's a random clip playing, however i do not have any chrome tabs open/ other browser, when I looked at my liked videos on youtube, I've found a bunch of clips that I've never watched on the list, mostly from indian or arab creators based on tech and business. I do not know what this is from, I dont have autoplay on and nobody else has access to my email, please help me

    :)

  2. Laptop goes to sleep when the LID is closed while playing the game.

    Hello,

    I realize the inconvenience you are facing in your laptop regarding the sleep mode while playing game. We will help you.

    To assist you better, I suggest you to answer the below questions.

    • Have you connected the external monitor to the Laptop?
    • Did you make any recent changes prior to the issue?
    • Are you facing this issue specifically when playing the specific Game?
    • Are you facing this issue after any recent updates installed?
    This issue might have caused due to the power settings for the closing of LID is set to sleep mode.

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

    • Press Windows + X keys and select the Control Panel.

    Laptop restarts after closing the lid

    Hi,

    It appears that your laptop hibernates when you close its lid. This feature terminates running processes on your machine since it allows the system to use very little power. If
    Do nothing is already selected for Choose what closing the lid does
    in Power Options, let's try to make hibernation unavailable. Follow these steps:

    • Right-click on the Windows icon on your home screen.
    • Select Command Prompt (Admin).
    • Click Yes if you get a prompt window.
    • Type powercfg.exe /hibernate off then press Enter.
    See if this will prevent the laptop from hibernating when you close the lid.

    Let us know how it turns out.
