This tutorial will show you how to get a list of devices that support or configured to wake the system from any sleep state in Windows 10 and Windows 11.

When you put your computer to sleep, a device can automatically wake the computer if the device is currently configured (allowed) to wake the system from a sleep state.

Some devices may support waking the system from a sleep state, but are not currently configured to wake the system.

Knowing which devices that are currently configured to wake the system from any sleep state can be useful if you want to prevent a device from waking the computer.

I am sort of confused by this tutorial. I came here looking for an answer to hopefully find a way to keep my Bluetooth mouse (Logitech MX 3 Anywhere) and BT Mechanical keyboard available to wake my laptop. I have a 2022 HP Envy laptop which is connected to a Dell S2722QC monitor by a USB-C DP cable, and when my laptop goes to sleep/hibernates, neither of these devices can wake the laptop. I verified that Modern Standby is enabled, and I have run Options 1 and 2 above. Option 2 does not specifically list my BT mouse or keyboard - only shows HID-compliant mouse or keyboard device. That being said what is the purpose of Option3 above

Get List of Devices that Support Waking Computer from any Sleep State​


I ran Option 3 and bluetooth appears in numerous places, as well as specifically listing the MX 3 Anywhere Mouse and my BT 5.0 keyboard. So is there a way to enable these devices in Option 3? Or do I need to run the prompt to turn off Hibernation completely?

Any help appreciated.
