Windows 10: Help wake up computer from shut down using keyboard and mouse

I am new to this subreddit. I have a Lenovo laptop running Windows 10 Home that I have connected to an external monitor, SteelSeries mechanical keyboard, and Logitech gaming mouse.

I am trying to figure out how to turn on the pc using the keyboard and the mouse. I have already enable the keyboard and mouse to wake the pc from sleep, but that does not let me turn the computer on.

Is it possible to turn on a setting like this?

Thank all of y'all in advance for the help!

How to stop mouse movement from waking the computer?

Thanks lgentry. I have a Microsoft wired keyboard and a Logitech wireless mouse. Under Device Manager>Keyboards it lists two "HID Keyboard Device"s and the Microsoft keyboard. Unchecking the "Allow this device to wake the computer" for the two HID keyboards fixed the problem as you suggested. Weird that one must prevent "keyboards" from waking the computer to in fact prevent the mouse from waking it.

 

Mouse won't wake up computer from sleep.

When my computer goes to sleep, power light is blinking on the computer so perhaps it's deep sleep, moving the USB attached mouse does not wake it up.
Allow mouse to wake is enabled:





This used to work, even with 2004 but somewhere with one of their updates it stopped working. I tried a new mouse, same problem. Any suggestions?

Yes, I've done many Google searches and looked at lots of responses but there really is nothing more than the above as far as a suggested fix.

I've uninstalled the mouse from Device Manager then rebooted, no help.

USB attached keyboard works okay and wakes the computer.

 

How to stop mouse movement from waking the computer?

SOLUTION to fixing wireless mouse waking computer from sleep. I know this is an old thread but wanted to share what fixed this for me in case it might help someone. I fought this problem for months. I have (one) Logitech wired keyboard and (one) Logitech wireless mouse. In device manager under 'keyboards' Windows lists 2 devices - HID keyboard device and Logitech HID compliant keyboard. Under 'Mice and other pointing devices' it lists 2 devices -HID compliant mouse and Logitech HID compliant unifying mouse. If you uncheck 'allow this device to wake computer' on everything but Logitech HID compliant keyboard, the mouse will no longer wake computer. I feel the same scenario would probably work for those of you who use a Microsoft cordless mouse. I tested this even further by connecting a no-name wired mouse instead of the wireless one. Of course that mouse woke computer until I unchecked the box in power management. This issue seems to happen when either a Microsoft or Logitech unifying receiver is in the scenario. It does not happen when both keyboard and mouse are plain old wired devices. In that case Windows identifies only one mouse and one keyboard.
