Windows 10: Windows 10 "There are currently no power options available"

About a week or so ago, I noticed that my laptop was no longer "waking up" after closing the lid. It was instead completing a full shutdown and booting back up every time. I then noticed that when I click on the power button, it now says "There are currently no power options available".

I've done a bunch of research on this today and there are several recommendations and they have all failed/been unable to complete. I was on the phone for 2 1/2 hours today with Microsoft tech with them using the assist tool to actually control my laptop. Everything they did failed. I'm still stuck here and not sure what to do.

The issue existed on my other laptop for about two days and resolved itself. However, I'm still unable to resolve the issue on this one.

There are currently no power options available

Hi MR, welcome to the Microsoft community, my name is Luiz Cruz, Microsoft's independent consultant, and I would be happy to help you.

I understand that your computer is not shutting down completely. To solve this problem I suggest that you perform the steps below:

Step 1:

Change the function of the off button. To do this, follow the steps outlined below:

1. On the Desktop, simultaneously press the Windows + R keys to open Run;

2. At Run, type "powercfg.cpl" and click Ok, to open the Power Options;

3. Click on Choose the function of the power button, change the item When I press the power button to Off;

4. Click Save Changes.

Step 2:

Disable third party software and services from system startup. They may be running in the background, making it difficult to shut down the computer. For more information, the article below:

How to perform a simple boot in Windows.

Step 3:

Disable quick system startup. To do this, perform the steps below:

1. On the Desktop, simultaneously press the Windows + X keys, then click on Power Options;

2. Under Power Options, click Choose the power button function;

3. Then click on Change settings not currently available;

4. Deselect the Turn on quick start (recommended) item, click Save changes.

If the answer helped in any way, please mark it as an answer, if your question has not been solved, please post again.

I hope I helped, even more!

Windows 10 : There are currently no power options available

I currently have two users here in the office with Windows 10: There are currently no power options available error.

I have tried multiple things and none seem to work. Below are the troubleshooting steps i have done so far.

• Changed power plan (both to a different preset and to a new custom plan).
• Ran gpedit.msc and ensured User Configuration > Administrative Templates > Start Menu and Taskbar was not enabled.
• Ran regedit and created a registry value for NoClose with the value 0 at HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer.
• Ran sfc /scannow from an admin command prompt; no issues found.
• Ran powercfg –restoredefaultschemes from an admin command prompt.
• Ran Policy Editor and located the remove shut down. Enabled it and disabled it. Did not work
• System restored it back before the problem started to happen but still getting same result.
• Took the surface pro tablet off from the domain and logged in as a local administrator. Still got the same result even on a workgroup with administrator logged in.
• Ran Any current updates, No updates were available.
• Ran the laptop in safe mode and still same issue, also ran sfc /scanow and still did not find any issues.
• Ran troubleshoot power options. Did not find any errors.

One user is using a brand new Microsoft windows 10 surface pro, the other user is using windows 10 pro dell laptop.

There have no hardware changes to any of the laptops and there have been no installation of any other software.

The power options out of nowhere just didn't show anymore.

The only workaround is pushing control+alt+del.
