Windows 10 missing Bluetooth power management tab

Anonymous

Intel Bluetooth's Power management tab disappeared in Device Manager. There used to be a checkbox in Intel Bluetooth where I could turn on power saving for bluetooth accessories. I want to check "Allow the computer to turn of this device to save power". Now my wireless mouse is disconnecting frequently, making the PC almost unusable. How do I get it back or has it moved? (Have latest 2004 update, bluetooth drivers is latest version 21.90.2.1)

Note: I created a new DWORD key named CsEnabled with hexadecimal value 0 in Regedit under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power & restarted, but that did not work. Hardware hasnt changed

I found the Power management tab appearing in items in the Human Interface Devices category. Unchecked the option in Bluetooth Low Energy GATT compliant HID device and Bluetooth XINPUT compatible input device, and the issue went away

Hi Ridhwaans and all others who come here, Ridhwaans have shared a picture of how to get it which is the key. I tackled this problem this way and i go the tab by following a video. You should look for the option in human interface devices> hid device and the others sections which has bluetooth in them and if it is there then you are done. Remember that you need to turn off allow to turn off in every section. Follow this video which helped me a lot! (10) Bluetooth Freezing - No Power Management Tab - Supplemental Video - YouTube

Hi,

 I was a user of the Microsoft Arc Touch Bluetooth Mouse and In my laptop Lenovo Ideapad 3 14ARE05, It was disconnecting frequently even though the laptop is a 2021 model. This was actually fixed when I changed my mouse to a mi dual mode silent edition. It was weird how it didn't work when it was microsoft.

Forgot to mention that along the journey, I saw multiple posts telling that there is this is this issue with microsoft mice. But later, I tried it on another laptop and it was working fine.

YES! Holy krappity kretin krap!

That's it!

That damn fingerprint biometric reader!

I have never used it. Never even set it up! This PC is 1.5yr old.

This just happened now this week.

Why is this happening?

Those damn updates!

I have wasted 1/2 day searching for a solution. And I was going mad with my mouse always freezing/sleeping after 5seconds. Same like the guy in the video.

This video was it!

Thanks!

Unchecking the Power Management under the Biometric and fingerprint setting.
