Mustufa Dosani 25

Whenever I am working on my laptop and go for a break. Then if I return and wake up my computer from sleep mode, I find that all my apps are closed. It helps that all information is stored in the cloud. But whenever I am working on google all info is lost. Please help me with this. I didn't find the solution to this problem on Google also.

If there’s a misconfiguration with the power settings on your PC, it may result in data loss and your apps closing.

Open Windows Settings app.

Go to the System tab, then click on Troubleshoot in the right pane.

Click Other troubleshooters.

Find and select the Power option, then click the Run button to initiate the troubleshooter.

You may also disable Hybrid Sleep:

1, press “Windows”+“x”, choose “Windows PowerShell(Admin)”

2, in Windows PowerShell, input: powercfg –h off , then press enter

If required, you need run SFC and DISM.

Sometimes, newly installed updates and patches can change system settings, causing miscommunication between the PC and its components.

Hi, I have the same issue, whenever I put my PC to sleep and wake it up, the PC will reboot and all the last open apps and work are all closed. It is not like waking up from sleep but like a restart.

Tried the above solution, but I could not find the "Power" option in the "other troubleshoot tab"
Following are the steps I followed:

Settings

System

Troubleshoot

Other troubleshooters

There are a lot of options such as "Audio", Network and Internet" and etc to run, except "Power".

Tried the second solution above using the Windows PowerShell, but when I input "powercfg –h off", it says "Invalid Parameters -- try "/?" for help"

Hi, I had the same issue and as Yung Un stated I could not find 'Power' option in the 'other troubleshoot tab'. Also Windows PowerShell solution for input: powercfg –h off did not work.

I have found that Windows Dynamic lock has an option "Automatically save my restartable apps and restart them when I sign back in" I have turned it 'on' to see if it helps.
