Inactivity lock while on battery

Teddy_Brewski — Thu, 04 Jan 2024 15:53:51 GMT

Hello,

Are there any settings in the Endpoint Security policies that could affect inactivity lock while the laptop is on battery?

Several users (mainly running Endpoint 87.40.0246) reported that it's too quick (literally tenths of seconds). I'm using 87.62.2002 and couldn't reproduce it, neither I could find any policy settings in the Infinity Portal.

PS: In case it matters, all local drives are encrypted using BitLocker encryption.

Thank you.

Usually, this is controlled through GPO and/or MDM (depending on device type).
As far as I know, this is not something we control on Endpoint.

You may want to check the 'Presence sensing' settings on Windows (Settings > System > Power & battery > Screen and Sleep). I guess, you can also manage the presence sensing in the BIOS.
