My mac has been unwantedly shutting down when I leave it closed and unplugged recently. I'm guessing this is because of the AutoPowerOff Delay and AutoPowerOff Enabled settings:

Unfortunately, I haven't been able to figure out how to change those settings. How do I change those settings?

I haven't tried this because my 2010 MacbookPro doesn't list "AutoPowerOff" in the system report, but you should be able to turn off that feature by opening a terminal and running the following command.

sudo pmset -a autopoweroff 0

  • I don't know why but my iMac started to auto power off too after installing High Sierra, nice finding here! – Luciano Jan 17 '18 at 15:16
