Windows 10 offers a few different ways to \u201cshut down\u201d your PC. \u201cSleep\u201d is the most common choice, which is why you can decide how long it will take before your PC goes to sleep. We\u2019ll show you how.<\/p>\n

Sleep mode is similar to \u201cpausing\u201d your PC. Everything will remain open and in its place while the PMC goes into a low-power state. It\u2019s still technically on, which is how it starts right back up where you left off so quickly.<\/p>\n

Windows 10 uses sleep mode to automatically save power after your PC has been idle for a while. You can customize this time length to better suit your needs. It\u2019s easy to do.<\/p>\n

First, click the Start Menu and select the gear icon to open the Settings. (You can also open the window by pressing Windows+i.)<\/p>\n

\"click<\/p>\n

Next, select \u201cSystem\u201d from the Settings window.<\/p>\n

\"select<\/p>\n

Select \u201cPower & Sleep\u201d from the sidebar.<\/p>\n

\"select<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re using a desktop, you\u2019ll see one drop-down for \u201cWhen Plugged In\u201d under both \u201cScreen\u201d and \u201cSleep.\u201d If you\u2019re using a laptop or tablet, you\u2019ll see a second drop-down for \u201cOn Battery Power.\u201d<\/p>\n

For this guide, we\u2019re interested in the drop-down(s) under \u201cSleep.\u201d Select the one you want to adjust.<\/p>\n

\"select<\/p>\n

Choose a time length from the menu.<\/p>\n

\"choose<\/p>\n

That\u2019s it! The PC will now go to sleep after the time you chose. Keep in mind that depending on your settings in the \u201cScreen\u201d section, the display may turn off before the computer goes to sleep.<\/p>\n
