Hi, Just did a clean install of W11 Home 23H2 22631.3296 and I cannot set the computer to NOT go to sleep as I can in all of my other W11 Pro versions. See pics.

Just use the dropdown list to select Never or just write Never in that box.
The implication in your OP is that Windows would not let you do that. It let me.

The edition of windows doesn't matter for power settings. Do you have all the drivers installed and up to date? Chipset driver, graphics driver etc? Windows updates ran through?

The edition, Home or Pro, shouldn't make a difference to the availability of those options. I see them in both Home and Pro. What can make Sleep unavailable is an incompatible display driver. If it's using the Microsoft Basic Display Adapter, for example, then Sleep is not possible and you won't see that option.

I don't understand.
You could already see "the other".

The OP has two machines, one with the option, the other without. Both were in the first post.
