When you close your laptop lid, Windows can shut down, do nothing, or enter a power-saving state, such as sleep or hibernation. You can apply the same setting to all of your power plans or you can apply different settings to individual plans.
To apply the same setting to all plans |
- Open Power Options by clicking the Start button , clicking Control Panel, clicking System and Security, and then clicking Power Options.
- On the Select a power plan page, click Choose what closing the lid does.
- On the Define power buttons and turn on password protection page, next to When I close the lid, choose what you want your laptop to do, both for when it's running on battery and when it's plugged in.
Tip

- Click Save changes.
