To ensure that you can use your laptop as a desktop, the laptop needs to stay awake.
The process is very simple, and you can quickly do it using Control Panel.
Just follow the instructions below:
Step-1: Open the Run box using the short cut keys Win + R.
Step-2: Type control panel and press Enter.
Step-3: Select Hardware and Sound.
Step-4: Select Power Options.
Step-5: On the left pane, select Choose what closing the lid does.
Step-6: In the drop-down menus next to When I close the lid, select Do nothing.

After this, whenever you close the laptop lid, your system will work like a desktop.
However, keep in mind that this can cause your laptop to heat up very quickly.
So, don’t forget to shut down the system properly when it is not in use to prevent overheating and damaging your system over time.
