Hello-
My HP tablet needs to be available for a skype call 24/7 and will therefore run from it's power supply, not the battery. I tried setting the plugged-in power setting to never shut off but that setting did not get accepted and
I can only choose 5 hours max. Is there a way to allow "never" to be used as an option?
Thanks
Ken

Thank you for the reply.

The unit:
HP 11-inch Tablet 2 in 1 Touchscreen 2.1K IPS
Intel Pentium Silver 4GB LPDDR4X 128GB SSD
Windows 11 Home S, Silver

I was able to change sleep setting when plugged in:
Settings/system/power and battery. Had to find and select "Never"

Hopefully that will keep the unit on and available to Skype calls.

Not sure I like windows 11 on a tablet. MS seems to work hard to make everything difficult.
Next project is to find a way to remove the screensaver pin. From what I googled you need to get into the registry or use an app :mad:
