Windows 10: Shutdown when I close the lid.

I'm using a Dell Inspiron 15 3000 laptop and one day I changed the 'sleep time when plugged in' to 5 hours and now I can't sleep my laptop when closing the lid. I've reset power settings and disabled the Intel Management Engine, and almost did everything in the internet. How to fix this problem.

Any suggestion ?

Laptop does not shutdown when i click shutdown and close the lid, it sleeps instead.

Hi Gan,

This scenario happens when your Power Options is misconfigured. For us to have this isolated, we suggest that you follow these steps:

• Click on Start.
• Select Settings.
• Click on System.
• Select Power & sleep tab.
• On the right side, click on Additional power settings.
• On the left pane, select Choose what closing the lid does.
• Under Power button and lid settings, click the drop down next to
  When I close the lid.
• Select Shut down.
• Click on Save changes button.
• When you’re ready to make your PC shut down, close your laptop's lid.
  

Note: Every time that you will close the lid, your laptop will automatically shut down.

Let us know if you have other concerns.

 

How to force shutdown on laptop lid close ?

Welcome to the forum
If you are saying that the laptop won't shutdown because you need to choose an option to save MSWord or not then I don't think it's possible to change that procedure when the lid is closed. But, maybe someone knows a registry hack or something to accomplish it
If you want to force all running apps and software to close without saving then a Command Prompt shortcut is probably the easiest.
See the Shutdown tutorial Option 8 and decide which Command Prompt is best for you, it will probably be

shutdown /s /f /t 0


Note Immediately force running apps to close, and then performs a full shutdown of the computer.
or
shutdown /s /hybrid /f /t 0


Note Immediately force running applications to close, and then performs a shutdown of the computer and prepares it for fast startup.
• Copy the Command Prompt
• Right click on an empty space on the Desktop
• Select New > Shortcut
• Paste the Command Prompt in the location box
• Next
• The name shutdown should appear in the box, edit that if you want
• Finish
Move the shortcut to wherever you like and/or pin to Taskbar or Start
