    Device Manager - Windows changes settings without my permission


    I have a major problem with my settings in Device Manager.I have drivers that control the touchpad on my laptop. I have set the "Allow the computer to turn off the device to save power" setting unchecked on all of my touchpad drivers.Windows will randomly enable this setting without my permission. The result is that sometimes when I wake my laptop from Sleep, the touchpad is not working.How do I stop Windows from changing this setting? The change is happening automatically and I want it to stop.Before one of the idiot Microsoft employees or independent advisors jumps on here:- This is a brand
