Power management tab missing in keyboard properties

At the Start screen, type "System Settings" and press Enter. Click on Keyboard and your setting is there.

Thanks for trying, but you didn't even understand my question.

"is there any other way to disable keyboard waking?"

Your answer isn't clear at all. There is no such option there. What are you even referring to?

Launch the Device Manager and expand the Keyboards section, where you should find an entry (or more than one) labelled "HID-Keyboard Device" or similar. Right-click this, select "Properties" and the "Power Management" tab appears, where the option "Allow this device to wake the computer" can be deselected.

Similarly, in the "Mice and other pointing devices" section of Device Manage, you can do the same thing to deselect "Allow this device to wake the computer" for each mouse.

I just found the answer after a year of searching, and successfully implemented it today. The answer is in the Registry. Make one "value" change, and voila, the Power Management Tab appears.

Follow the short instructions at the beginning of this link.

Good Luck

Just changed the registry as suggested. Power management tab still doesn't appear.
Any further ideas?

After considerable research into this subject, I am now convinced that the absence of the Power Tab is by design in newer PC's. I cured my Asus problem by experimenting with settings in Power Options.

If your Power Tab is not showing after disabling the Registry Key that controls it, I think you may have not have done it correctly. Retrace your steps using the link just above your question.

Good luck.
