How to Prevent Sleep Mode on Toshiba Dynabook Tecra Laptops

Adjusting Power and Battery Settings

• 💡 Navigate to Settings, then System, and select Power and battery to access sleep and hibernate timeouts.
• 📌 Timeouts can be adjusted separately for when the laptop is plugged in versus when it's running on battery.

Configuring Sleep and Screen Timeout

• ⏰ To prevent your laptop from sleeping, set 'Make my device sleep after' to a longer duration or 'Never'.
• 💻 You can also configure 'Turn my screen off after' to a desired interval, such as half an hour.
• 🔋 For battery power, it's recommended to set lower times to conserve battery life, though 'Never' is an option if preferred.

Lid Close Action Settings

• 🎛️ Under 'Lid power and sleep button controls', you can change what happens when the lid is closed.
• 🚫 Setting 'Closing the lid will make my PC do nothing' prevents the laptop from sleeping when the lid is shut.
• 🚀 This is useful for scenarios like running a server on your laptop or using external monitors with the lid closed.
