Sleep and Hibernation

I have Dell Latitude E6410. The sleep and hibernation function worked extremely well under Windows 7. I have upgraded to Windows 10 and it no longer works. I can manually put computer into sleep/hibernation but it will NOT automatically do it after specified
period of time. I have checked all my power settings and they are correct. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
