Windows 10: Sleep states not available on system

Hi,My laptop does not enter sleep, instead it enters hibernate. I ran powercfg /a, and got the following:The following sleep states are available on this system: Standby S0 Low Power Idle Network Connected HibernateThe following sleep states are not available on this system: Standby S1 The system firmware does not support this standby state. This standby state is disabled when S0 low power idle is supported. Standby S2 The system firmware does not support this standby state. This standby state is disabled when S0 low power idle is supported. Sta

Activate sleep states after Win10 install

I have just bought a new PC from a PC Builder, but they disabled all the power savings settings in the BIOS, and I think that affected the ability to use any of the sleep states because that was the state whilst windows was installing.

I first noticed a problem when I tried to change the power button settings I noticed that Sleep was missing:

I tried the Change Settings that are currently unavailable option but that made no difference.

So I then tried
powercfg /a which returned the following:

I assumed that the BIOS settings must be disabled and that after enabling them I would see those missing states, but its still the same.

Someone recommended activating the Hibernate, they thought that would fix it but all it did is add some rows to the top of the report

My motherboard is an ASUS Z270-K, does anyone have any suggestions other than a reinstall?

 

Display will not sleep.

Need a simple straightforward answer regarding sleep in Windows 10

I should probably have clarified a little, of the 4 sleep states potentially offered by PC hardware (normally referred to as S0, S1, S2, and S3), which of these needs to be available in order for Windows 10 to force "sleep"?

powercfg /a, reports the "sleep states available", and lists also those sleep states which are not available. In addition to the "hardware" sleep states, powercfg refers also to "Hibernate", "Fast Startup", and "Hybrid sleep" as additional sleep states.

Since the powercfg info for my machines offers no clues as to which (if any) combinations are required, I was hoping someone at Microsoft actually knew what was required.

I have already tried your suggestions, the only result being that my machines now attempt to go to sleep sooner than they used to. Sigh.

So, no, your suggestions were not in the least helpful, and in fact suggested that you had failed to understand the problem, which still exists.
