Windows 10: How to enable sleep option

When I trying to enable sleep option in "Power Options", I get "Some settings are managed by your system administrator". This is my PC and I am my administrator myself. How I can remove this limitation, or, at least, enable sleep option for my Windows 10?



I tried to enable sleep through registry: Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power CsEnabled=1.

But this isn't worked out.


How I can fix this problem?

Sleep option

Hi John,

The issue might be due to a disabled sleep to show in Power menu
option in Control Panel.

We would like to ask for some information:

• Did you get any error messages?
• Can you provide us with a screenshot?

In the meantime, please check if the sleep to show in Power menu
option in Control Panel is enabled using the steps below:

• Type Control Panel on the search box and press Enter.
• Select System and Security, then Power Options.
• Click on Choose what the power buttons do.
• Put a check-mark on the Sleep-Show in Power menu box.

We will wait for your response.

 

Sleep option

Hi Remon,

I tried what you suggested, but I did not see a sleep option listed in the settings for the power options. There was a "hibernate" option, but I don't think that is the same as the sleep option which I had prior to the last update. Also, since the update,
my graphics, images, and fonts are slightly distorted.

Thanks,

John
