Windows 10: Sleep issue on HP laptop

Laptop keeps going to sleep in every 5 minutes or so after doing the system recovery and upgrading to windows 10 from windows 7. I changed the sleep options in power setting but it didn't help. It is really annoying and distracting. How can I fix this problem?

HP ENVY 17-k000 sleep issues

Hello,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

If the computer does not wake from sleep or hibernate mode, restarting the computer, changing settings, or updating the software and drivers will resolve the issue.

Method 1: Hybrid sleep.

If your system has a lag or delay before sleeping try to
disable Hybrid Sleep to see the sleep performance is improved.

• Go to Search window and type
  Control Panel > select System and Maintenance option > click on
  Power options to run the applet.
  
• Click on Change plan settings under the active selected power plan.
  
• On the Change settings for the plan option, click on
  Change advanced power settings. On the Advanced settings tab of Power Options, expand
  Sleep and then expand Allow hybrid sleep option. Select
  Off from the drop down list as the value for the options available.
  
• Click on OK option and click on
  Save changes option.
  

As per the query, I also suggest you to refer the HP article provided below and check if it resolves the issue by following each step:

Hope it helps.

HP Laptops Shipped with Hidden Keylogger

Michael Myng, more commonly known as ZwClose, was approached by a friend to look into the possibility of controlling the keyboard's backlighting on his HP laptop. Michael was down for the challenge, and his friend sent the Synaptics SynTP.sys file over to him. After analyzing the keyboard driver, he found the sleeping keylogger. The logging function is disabled by default. However, intruders can enable it easily by modifying the registry value through malicious code. Michael reported the issue to HP, and the company released a list of the affected laptop models along with a security patch. The list contains over 400 models from HP's most popular product lines like the EliteBook, ProBook, ZBook, Spectre Pro, ENVY, Pavilion, OMEN - just mention a few. Now that the vulnerability is public, we urge HP laptop owners to install the security patch ASAP. The fix is also available on Windows Update if that's your preferred method.
