Windows 10: No Power Management Tab for Goodix Fingerprint Scanner in Device Manager but is Badly...

I posted here about the issue that my new Dell XPS 15 would reboot on its own after going to sleep. Using BlueScreenView I finally found the culprit. It's the Goodix Fingreprint driver that is causing the issue.The solution posted everywhere online is to go into the Device Manager -> Right-Click the Goodix Moc Fingerprint -> Properties -> Power Management -> Untick "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power".However, when I do that for mine, there is no "Power Management" tab. Only General, Driver, Details and Events tabs. I have the latest version of the Goodix Fing

Fingerprint issue/Power Management

already tried the credentials service one, not of any help. I guess the only fix is from the power management tab

1. Press Windows Key + X and choose Device Manager from the list

2. When Device Manager opens, locate your fingerprint reader. It should be located in Biometric Devices section.

3.Right click your fingerprint reader and choose Properties

4. Navigate to Power Management tab and uncheck Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power.

5. Click OK to save changes.


I want to follow this step but I cannot find the power management tab.

 

Power Management Tab in Device Manager

Hi, some other ideas:

Please see both #68 (the fix you've tried) and in particular the comment in #69 here:
Allow or Prevent Devices to Wake Computer in Windows 10

One such thread suggested an old ethernet drive could give rise to the tab missing.

Another suggested:

Some threads suggest that anything preventing sleep may conflict with this.

Is the device allowed to wake the PC?

Fingerprint issue/Power Management

I have been facing this problem, after I turn on my laptop after sleep I cannot login using fingerprint. Although I can use my fingerprint after a complete shutdown. I guess this is a power management issue but i cannot find the missing power management tab in fingerprint driver in my device manager. I have been through many instruction and topics to restore the tab non of which were a proper help. I would love to have a solution, this is bothering me a lot because I normally let my laptop in sleep mode rather than turning it off. Thank you.
