when my laptop is connected to power and i close it, it goes to sleep. when i open it i resume my work

however when my laptop isnt connected and is on battery life, i close it and it shuts down...anyone know how to fix it so it goes to sleep? this just started happening a week ago or so...not sure what changed

What windows version is installed on your laptop?

If it's windows 7/10 this should work
Click Start, choose Control Panel, and then choose System and Security.
Choose Power Options and then select Choose What Closing the Lid Does from the left pane.
Simply Choose the option you want from the drop-down list.

thats what i got. tested it again, it doesnt actually shut down completely (i dont have to hit the power button to boot up). it just boots back up when i open the lid. i login and all my apps programs are closed, as if i just started it up

Try changing it to do nothing if sleep doesn't work for some reason

Your going to want to change your settings to "Do nothing" instead of "Sleep" and don't forget to uncheck the box labeled "Sleep" under your "Shutdown settings".

If for some reason this doesn't fix the issue your having let us know.

Edit/ Don't forget to hit "Save settings" when your done.
