Introduction
The Auto Boot feature powers on your laptop as soon as you open the lid, so it should be disabled before undertaking certain repairs. Auto Boot can be found on 2016 (and newer) MacBook Pros and 2017 (and newer) 12" Retina MacBooks.
This guide will walk you through the process of disabling Auto Boot, and then re-enabling it when your repair is complete.
Note: Disabling Auto Boot may not work on Apple’s newer ARM-based M1 MacBook Pro or MacBook Air, released in late 2020. At this time, we don’t know any procedure for disabling Auto Boot on devices equipped with Big Sur v11.1 or later.
Congrats! You're done.
