Windows 10: Notebook display still on with lid closed

In Windows 10, when I close de lid the internal monitor was turn off and I could use 3 external monitor attached to a dock. Now, with Windows 11, when I close de lid, the internal monitor is still on and only two external monitor works. If I connect the third monitor windows will continue bip like a new hardware is detected, enabling and disabling the monitor. The only way to make 3 external monitors working is to manually disable the internal monitor. The problem with that WA is when disconected the notebook from dock internal monitor is still disabled and dod not work.

Advanced settings for when the notebook lid is closed?

Hi Sweetsweetcorn and welcome to Tenforums.

You started right. In power options Set closing the lid to "do nothing".
Then set your screen saver (yes, that old Control panel option) to blank screen, and check option: on resume display logon screen.



In latest builds, easier to find screen saver is to type "screen saver" in Settings app and start it from there.



For your downloads to finish, default power option settings should be fine

Hi,

That method is not good enough for me. Sorry.

The problem is that it will not lock straight away that way when I close the lid.

So my question remains to be answered, I do hope that someone will really help me
