  1. Please help I can't keep my laptop from sleeping. Windows 10


    I need to keep my computer to stop sleeping. The laptop is set on sleep never and it is not set on any battery or power saver mode. I believe I checked everything on all the choices to make it not sleep. I also restarted it to make it take effect. Please help I can not get it to stop sleeping soon as I am not touching the keyboard or mouse. Even if I am watching a video it goes to sleep. It is running on Windows 10 and this sleep problem is driving me nuts. I have to sign in every single time over and over again.

    :)

    Hi,

    As you are unable to get the option for sleep in the Start menu, I suggest you to follow the steps provided by
    John T in the link provided below and check:

    Why windows 10 buttons are missing sleep and hibernate command?

    Also, follow the steps provided below and check if you are able to adjust the brightness.

    • Press Windows key + X and select Device Manager.
    • Expand Display Adapters.
    • Right click on the driver and select Update Driver Software.
    • Follow the on-screen prompts to update the driver.

    Hope this helps. Keep us posted on the status for further assistance.

    Windows 10 laptop doesn't go to sleep when wifi is on

    Run these steps below:

    Method 1: Follow the steps:

    Method 2: I suggest you to run in-built Power troubleshooter and check. Follow the steps:

    Method 3: 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.

    Method 4: Lastly I suggest you check your chipset and video drivers, try checking for the updates from the manufacturer's website and update all the necessary drivers, i.e the chipset and video drivers

    Let me know if the issue is resolved or if you require further assistance.

    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.
