Hello-
My HP tablet requires constant availability for Skype calls, so it must run on its power source rather than the battery. I attempted to set the plugged-in power mode to never shut off, but that option wasn't accepted. I can only limit it to a maximum of 5 hours. Can I modify this setting so that "never" becomes an available choice? Thanks

which hp tablet model it is and which windows version it uses. Usually, maximum performance energy profile should be applied, using the Windows energy options rather than hp tools.

Thank you for your message.
The device model is HP 11-inch Tablet 2 in 1 Touchscreen 2.1K IPS.
It runs Intel Pentium Silver with 4GB LPDDR4X and 128GB SSD, using Windows 11 Home S, Silver.
I managed to adjust the sleep settings when connected: Settings/system/power and battery. I had to choose "Never."
I’m hoping this will help keep the unit active for Skype calls.
I’m not sure about Windows 11 on a tablet—I feel Microsoft seems to make things complicated.
My next goal is to figure out how to remove the screensaver pin. From what I found online, you’ll need to access the registry or use an app.
