  1. Sleep timer issues windows 10


    My laptop has sleep timer 10 minutes on battery and 30 minutes plugged in. The problem is my laptop won't go to sleep automatically when I leave it. If I use the sleep option in the shutdown menu everything works just fine. However, when I step away from the machine it doesn't follow my power plan settings. I tried just activating a sleep timer and disabling the display shut off but then it just sits there.

    :)

    Radio sleep timer

    Hello ogee67,



    Thank you for posting on forum.



    Not sure what sleep timer you were talking about.



    If you want a STOP Music button for Radio…

    There is now such option for FM radio that was introduced with recent update. You can post a suggestion for sleep timer function to be introduced in Wp8 radio, at WP Suggestion box.

    http://windowsphone.uservoice.com/forums/101801-feature-suggestions

    or suggest introducing such function to STOP Music app in app review.





    If you would like to wake up with radio instead of alarm clock sound…

    Some apps can do it but not with FM radio. Here is an example of such app:

    Microsoft Apps



    Kind regards,



    Renata
