I'm using Windows 7 When i set my laptop to sleep or hibernate.

But when i open the lid the laptop start automatically : this cause a problem for me because when i package the laptop in my hand bag , the lid start to open a little bit so the laptop start itself ....

i don't want to do nothing when i open the lid , however i want to manually press the power button so the laptop have to wake up from sleep/hibernate mode.

I look at the power settings but there is no way to configure action when the lid is opened.

Thanks.

    You should specify the OS you're running, the laptop make/model and manufacturer. Each laptop is different. There is probably a magnet or button embedded into the monitor's bezel that triggers sleep/wake when you open or close the lid.

In Windows OS: Go to Control Panel → Power Options → choose how the lid behaves.

    I can choose how the laptop behave when the lid is closed but not when it's opened !!!

    Have you tried setting 'close lid' to 'do nothing', this should stop the opening wake from happening. Same topic as here superuser.com/questions/778169/…
