    sleep option missing in control panel?


    So I just recently had to do a clean of my computer using the RefreshWindowsTool a friend told me about. After doing so I seem to have lost my sleep option. I went to the control panel to re-enable the feature but the option was outright missing as seen in the photo below. how can I restore the option?

    :)

    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.

    Control Panel Options Missing

    There is an option missing from the Control Panel after a major upgrade. What happened to the
    Control Panel > All Control Panel Items > Display. The upgrade changed my font size, my icon size also changed some text items to from regular to bold and vice versa. In the control panel display
    option mentioned previously I was able to make all these changes. The drop down menu under Display listed such items as Icons, title bars, menus, message boxes, palette titles, icons and tooltips. It also allowed font size change and a selection of either
    bold or regular text. Any assistance would be appreciated.

    Thank You

    missing sleep menu in power

    Hi,

    Missing Sleep option in Power menu is usually caused by outdated or corrupted device drivers. For us to better assist you, we would like to ask the following:

    • Have you made any recent changes on your computer prior to the issue?
    • When you check the Power options in Control Panel, did you mean that the Sleep option is not displaying in the Shutdown settings?

    If you haven't check the Shutdown settings in Control Panel, we suggest to do so and make sure that the Sleep option is enabled. To check the Shutdown settings, follow these steps:

    • In Cortana search, type control panel.
    • Choose Control Panel from the list.
    • Click System and Security and select Power Options.
    • Click Choose what the power buttons do in the left pane of the window.
    • Under Shutdown settings, put a tick in the Sleep
      box and click Save changes.

    If the Sleep option is already enabled and it still doesn't appear in the Power menu, we recommend that you keep the device drivers up-to-date. For your reference, check this article on how to
    update drivers in Windows 10.

    Update us with the outcome so we can provide further assistance.
