I have a student who’s Chromebook is automatically powering down while the student is typing. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated?
I would start by performing a power wash on the device. If its a school device the student would have to contact their tech department to do this because its a managed device that requires enrollment credentials.
this happens commonly !!! its a screw that is loose and rolling around in the chromebook and it is where the chromebook magnet is to turn it off and the dell screws are like magnets so the will shut off the chromebook (just take off bottom and look by the charger port for a loose screw!!!!
You can run the Power troubleshooter to adjust your computer’s power settings. The Power troubleshooter checks things like your computer’s timeout settings, which determine how long the computer waits before turning off the monitor display or entering sleep mode.
