      (This part is kinda story-like and unrelated, you can skip to the next paragraph)
      When im watching videos, i put the laptop on a bedside table and sometimes while watching videos i lean my phone on it and start doing different stuff with my phone. And SOMETIMES the laptop went to sleep as i leaned my phone over it or like 1-2 seconds after that.
      I thought it was a coincidence.
      But when you said anything is possible i tried to see if this was related and after trying different things like tapping the phone to laptop which actually triggered β€˜close lid action’ (the screen flicker) randomly. So i thought it was tapping so i tried different things at my expose like my own hand, a book,… But they didnt do anything.
      After different theories and things like this i got to this point which is the whole point of this reply:

      My laptop was connected to my phone’s hotspot and steam was downloading a game. So i thought maybe this is related to what is happening and i asked my friend to spam messages to one of my accounts on my phone
      And i took this video while this was happening.
      When i stick my phone to the front of laptop (where battery and other LEDs are) it kept flickering with my friend’s messages.
      Also i want to say that he sent me over 30 or even more messages which was way more than the flickers!

      The video(sorry I couldnt find anywhere better to upload)
      Did you read this?
      This is a big breakthrough i think! But i don’t really know how to interpret it.

        yeah i did read it but re-reading it made me think of something else.
        any chance magnets are a factor here - like if you phone has a case with one in, or even the phone itself.
        laptops used to have a plastic button that got pushed when the lid was shut to trigger the power save feature, but some would be sexier and have a magnet system to detect the lid movement.

        give that theory a whirl - cause as said earlier, I’m fast running out of ideas.

            my last roll of the dice is…

            any reason you have Windows 10 Enterprise and not Home or Pro?
            I’m not 100% all over Enterprise but I know from previous Windows versions, some weren’t built with media player as a priority.

                    Where did you obtain the license for it?

                        In both post 25 and 30 you stated you installed Windows

                        Windows enterprise is a version aimed at Volume licensing for business, and as such not available to individuals.
