Windows 10: Windows 10 sleep problem.

Actually it's a wake from sleep problem. Lenovo Ideapad 300 laptop with power options set
to sleep when lid is closed. Quite frequently when lid raised my desktop screen is there but
taskbar is gone. It's set to auto-hide normally. Have to restart Windows and it then works.
I've tried numerous things but because it's intermittent, you know how that goes.*sarc
Any suggestions would be nice. Thanks. *Cool

Windows 10 login problem

Hi. I installed windows 10 on my friends computer, and his computer has a problem with overheating, so when I wanted to type his account details, the computer shut down. Then when I reopened it, is displays "Other User" and under are two columns, where
it says to type the email and the password. I tried three different accounts and it says that the password is incorrect. Please, help!

 

Windows 10 Problem

After I updated Windows 10 today as I was instructed, I can no longer get on the internet. My wifi no longer shows up to click on it. It was working fine until I allowed the install. I have tried restarting the HP Spectre x 369 laptop and the router,
but this has not helped. (I am using a borrowed Apple computer to search for a solution.) I need help to get back online. Can anyone help or tell me who I might contact for help?

 

What happens if you un-check Auto-hide? You can always check it back later and it will save you a restart until you find a solution.

 

Thanks but makes no difference. Being a computer tech for 30 years it is still one of the most frustrating
problems for me or a customer when any problem is intermittent and can't be reproduced consistently.
If I close my lid right now it goes to sleep. If I raise it the taskbar will probably be there. But so many times
it has been in sleep mode for a couple or several hours the taskbar may or may not be there. This is such
a nitpick annoyance but being on the perfectionist side I feel I have to see what makes it click or fail.
I mentioned I had to restart to regain but can also cntl. alt, del and from Task Manager sign off and back on
and that restores taskbar also. Weird. I love weird. *Wink
Thanks again. *Cool

 

I feel your pain. Really *Devil

 

Quick update. Seems workaround of logout, close lid and it sleeps. Open a few hours later, sign in and
taskbar is there. I use this lappy like a desktop so I never go mobile with it. I got it to fail a coup;e times
earlier and, who knows, it may even fail again now. I'm leaving right now, kiss it good night and let it sleep
until I return around midnight. If it's still working then I'll most assuredly be positive it may still fail tomorrow. *Wink

OK, just got home, 0030 hours, lifted my lid and entered my pswd. Taskbar was there. Good enuff.
Guess we'll mark this post closed until FUBAR again. *ThumbsGoodnight!! *Sleep

 

FYI: I did not want to sign out every time I closed the lid to sleep mode. Just funny that way.
I went into command prompt admin and ran powercfg -h off. That automatically disabled fast startup.
It has not failed again yesterday or today. I can live with this now. *Cool
