rog ally not switching to tablet mode

Rog Ally, the new Windows 11 handheld device from Asus, has been enjoying commercial and critical success. The device runs Windows 11 on it, and you can play games such as Elden Ring, Minecraft, and much more in the comfort of your own hands.

Since it’s running Windows 11, the device can be prone to vulnerabilities and bugs that often come with this operating system. For protection and viruses, Microsoft Defender should do the trick.

However, for the bugs and all those issues, we need to go into detail. For example, a Reddit user found out that Rog Ally defaulted back to standard Windows 11 and no longer had tablet mode turned on.

If that happens, you should know there is a solution. It’s quite simple, and you can do it in a couple of minutes.

Here’s what you should do to get your Rog Ally on tablet mode again

Firstly, it seems that for a certain reason, the Windows 11 on Rog Ally disables the display drivers, and that causes the Rog Ally to turn the tablet mode off.

So you need to enable them again, and that should fix the problem.

  1. Search for Device Manager and select it.rog ally not switching to tablet mode

You can also try to update your Windows on your Rog Ally. Several users also reported that the update did the trick of fixing the tablet mode issue.
