Windows 10: Powering-up a miniPC

I want to buy a miniPC with W10 to be used as a mediaplayer. Some systems are "advertised" as auto-powered, which means that by applying the main voltage to the power supply, the system including Windows powers up automatically. There is no need for pushing a button (like my desktop). Other systems do not say anything about it.
Since I put the mediaplayer in a cabinet, I would not prefer to have to push a button. So my question is: when autopowering is not standard, is there a way to make it work?

Power plan?

Upon checking, it seems that there's nothing wrong with your system. It is usual that you have to double-click your mouse before your monitor wakes up.

For the meantime, we suggest changing the power plan by following the steps below:

• Press Windows key + S.
• Type in Power Settings.
• On the pop-up window, choose Additional power settings.
• Select High performance.

After changing the power plan, we suggest that you monitor the changes made and check if that will work for you.
