Windows 10: Why does windows close all my apps when I close my laptop lid even though the power...

Why does windows close all my apps when I close my laptop lid even though the power settings arent set to act like this? When the laptop lid is opened, the apps are opened again and all data is lost or the apps try and "restore" the files. SMMS does this.So the question is, why does windows do this even when the power options are set correct?Why does it close the apps and try to open them again when I want them to remain open when I open my laptop?If I knew this is an issue, I would save and close all my apps and shut the laptop down.Please dont give a copy and paste response, lets sort this

Waking and Powering on laptop with lid close

Hi,

Closing the lid can result in your Windows shutting down, sleeping or hibernating. You can control the behavior and decide what you want to do, once you close the lid. To assist you with your concern, we recommend that you follow these steps on how
to configure the power option of your device if you want to keep your laptop running even with the lid closed:

• In the Search box, type powercfg.cpl and press
  Enter. This will open the Power Options applet of the Control Panel.
• Now, in the Power Options window, click Choose what closing the lid
  does link from the left pane.
  
  
  
  
  
• Choose what you want your laptop to do, when it’s running on battery and when it’s plugged in. For instance, under Power button and lid settings section you can find ‘When I Close the Lid’ option. Adjacent to it you can find options to help you define
  power button or lid settings. Once you've selected your options, click Save
  changes button.

Laptop restarts after closing the lid

Hi,

It appears that your laptop hibernates when you close its lid. This feature terminates running processes on your machine since it allows the system to use very little power. If
Do nothing is already selected for Choose what closing the lid does
in Power Options, let's try to make hibernation unavailable. Follow these steps:

• Right-click on the Windows icon on your home screen.
• Select Command Prompt (Admin).
• Click Yes if you get a prompt window.
• Type powercfg.exe /hibernate off then press Enter.

See if this will prevent the laptop from hibernating when you close the lid.

Let us know how it turns out.

 

Closing Laptop Lid Powers On Computer

I ran the power troubleshooter and it adjusted the dims setting, changed power plans, and adjusted the screen brightness. I did a clean boot and reset the power plans to default but the problem remains.

When I shut down and leave the lid open, it shuts down and powers back on. If I shut down and close the lid, it stays off. Then to power on, I have to open and close the lid.

Edit: Closing the lid powers off and opening the lid powers on. It also reboots after shutdown if lid is left open.
