Sleep option missing in Windows 10

Question

After Updating to Windows , I'm missing the Sleep button in the Power options. I've tried to add it through the Choose what the power button does, but it's also missing.

Answer 1

Open a PowerShell window and type: powercfg -a this will probably tell you why it is not available.

In my case 'sleep' was missing because the hypervisor service disabled it. I got around it by uninstalling it.

Answer 2

See if reset/restore all power plans to default will help. On command prompt:

powercfg -restoredefaultschemes
