my surface 4 laptop needing a hard restart everytime I close it

This is only an issue I've started experiencing after my laptop forced an installation of the most recent security update (KB5077181) last week. I'll close my laptop for even just 5 minutes and it won't turn back on unless I hard restart it (pressing the volume up and power button for 20 sec). It is a 4 year old laptop but i've taken really good care of it and it could have a full charge and still do that so its not like its just a dead battery.

How do I fix this? The only factor that has changed in this situation is the security update. Help!
