MacBook Pro with M1 Pro

Hello, I use an external (non-Mac) 4K display when working from home. It seems that there's no way to close the lid of my MacBook Pro without my MacBook Pro going into sleep mode?


I would just like to close the lid and continue working with my external display using my wireless mouse and keyboard.


I was able to do this with my previous MacBook Pro...

MacBook Pro 16″, macOS 12.5

Hi,

Try to Safe mode boot, then normal boot which could solve the issue.
