Hello All,

I'm wondering if anyone has come across this.  Everytime I disable the Power Management option "Allow this device to wake the computer" click OK, the setting stays, once I reboot the computer, the option is enabled again.

I've checked the BIOS there's no setting for this, other than WOL - which is disabled anyway.

Drivers has been updated

Windows patches are up to date.

Checked the registry to find any option, but I couldn't find any reference of PnPCapabilities

In case you're wondering, the reason I'm trying keep this option turned off is because a lot of my users' laptops turn on in the middle of the night to do windows updates when it is checked on.  When I check it off, they're fine.

Hello Jacky ,

Do you mean that after rebooting the computer , the option Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power is enabled?
And you are the only one user that affected?

If you are the only user that affected, please refer to the following article to fix the corrupted profile.

If you are not the only user that affected, please go to the manufacturer website and update the driver.

Hi Fangzhou,

Thanks for the reply.  It's actually not my profile, it's every computer in our organization.  It's actually the one below that.  When I uncheck Allow this device to wake the computer, after rebooting, it's re-enabled again.

If it's the profile, I'm assuming it's something to do with the image we created, I'm going to recreate it today and update this thread.

Thanks

Any updates?

Best regards,

Yes!

I recreated our image from scratch, and it fixed the problem.  I guess during audit mode the first time, somehow the profile got corrupted and carried on to any new profile that gets created afterwards.

Thank you Fangzhou
