A few days ago my sleep button randomly disappeared and nothing I have tried has been able to fix it. I have looked through quite a few threads of the same issue but haven't found a solution yet, my drivers are up to date. I am currently on Windows 11 24H2 version.

Hi, welcome.

We don’t know what you tried, perhaps you could list some things.

Make sure Sleep is enabled in the Power Plan for your PC

  1. Press Windows + R, type:
    control powercfg.cpl click OK or hit Enter
  2. Click "Choose what the power buttons do" from the sidebar.
  3. Click "Change settings that are currently unavailable".
  4. Under Shutdown settings, check Sleep (if available), then Save changes.
Check for the button (sleep option in Start Menu) again

Yeah so doing this it was not an option available. However, I have seemingly fixed it. For some reason, the driver installed through the Adrenalin software was version 10.something but when I looked on their site it was 6.3. So I downloaded it from the site instead and now the sleep button is back.
