What can cause a laptop to shutdown when the lid it close?<br />
I changed the power setting to do nothing when the lid is closed, but that worked briefly.<br />
I will update the drivers next, execute SFC, &nbsp;and updates Windows 10.<br />
If I have time, I will run a hardware test and disable hibernation, run DISM and scan for malware.<br />
Any ideas?
