I have a Lenovo Ideapad Slim 3 that I bought new two months ago, and it is running Windows 11. I have no idea why, but starting a few days ago, whenever I close the lid of my laptop, it doesn't sleep. This winds up draining my battery to death when the lid is closed.

I don't know why this is happening but it did seem to only start to occur after I installed an update to Windows 11 - I update Windows 11 every few weeks because my computer tells me I should.

Does anyone know how to get my laptop to actually sleep when I close the lid so that it doesn't drain the battery?

  • So your screenshot doesn’t actually show us the settings we need to make that particular screenshot helpful. I mean your laptop is currently configured to never go into hybrid sleep just from that screenshot

  • Ok, I have no idea what "hybrid sleep" is and I don't think I've ever even heard that term. Also, the screenshot isn't necessarily supposed to give all relevant information. I included the "power options" window because in this answer (superuser.com/questions/872378/…), there is a tab that says "power options and lid", but my laptop doesn't have this.

  • Try resetting your power plan to defaults and see if suspend returns.

    Also I'd appreciate if you didn't roast me immediately for asking an innocent question. "Oh hey your screenshot is useless btw." Like dude just help me; don't roast me straight out of the gate. I don't understand why this community has to be so toxic.

Thank you @John. Thank worked! :D

Given your post, I suggest resetting your current Power Plan to default settings, restart and test.

I think that should work
