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

    I encountered the same issue too after upgrading to version 2004.

    "Intel(R) Wireless Bluetooth(R)" device has not any "Power Management" tab.

    Also I uncheck all the power saving checkboxes found on device manager but not work.

    Seems to there is no solution yet.

    (Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro / Windows 10 2004)

    I fixed this issue on my Dell laptop by unchecking the checkbox under power management under the Human Interface Devices category, as proposed by @ridhwaans.

    I don't know why but Microsoft moved this option from Bluetooth devices to Human Interface Devices category.

    Regards

    Exact same problem.  Dell XPS 7390 2-in-1, Win10 build 2004.  mouse is the MS Precision with the MS Ergonomic Surface Keyboard.  

    Mouse movement is juttery, jumps and lags.  Keyboard is dropping out if not used every few minutes (cant control the power management).  Tried the Registry key fix, nothing.  Really hate how something like this can be so broken with a release of Windows.

    Hi There,

    i found a solution to fix the Bluetooth Mouse / keyboard /pen  Lagging issues.

    First, go to Device Manager > Human Interface Devices.

    1.Click on the "Bluetooth Low Energy GAT compliant HID device" and there's a power management tab in it. Disable/un-tick the "allow the computer to turn off this device to save power". 

    1. Click on "I2C HID Device" and there's a power management tab in it. Disable/un-tick the "allow the computer to turn off this device to save power". 

    Done.

    No more lagging and shuttering issue for my Bluetooth Mouse.

    Well, at least it works on my XPS 13 9370 (2in1).
