Adjust settings to prevent the mouse from waking your PC during sleep.
Adjust settings to prevent the mouse from waking your PC during sleep.
Put PC to sleep, then move the wireless Logitech mouse. The PC will wake up with just a tiny movement from the mouse. See this guide: https://www.online-tech-tips.com/compute...leep-mode/ If it still wakes, check your BIOS settings—your motherboard model may differ. Please share your signature so I can review it. Thanks!
You'd notice the results with multiple mice already logged in. I'm working with Logitech G5, MX Master 2s, and G903 models, currently using just the G903.
This post brings up an old issue I encountered. It suggests using powercfg -devicequery wake_armed in a command prompt or Windows PowerShell to check which devices are waking your PC. You’ll find the list of devices that can activate your system. In my setup, I had three keyboards and a network controller. I realized the mouse (model G703) was included in the list. Follow the earlier guide to turn off wake settings for each device. Running powercfg -devicequery wake_armed should confirm whether your changes worked. I disabled wake on all three listed devices, and now my Logitech G703 no longer wakes the computer. Let me know if this helps!
Just switch off the mouse once you’ve powered down the computer. Make sure to do this promptly after selecting sleep mode.
I adjusted the settings on some of the mice and disabled certain options, though one model still lacked a power management feature. A photo was included. The guide suggests modifying BIOS settings, but it mentions no wake from USB. Power should come only when both mouse and keyboard are activated, which clearly powers on the PC. Previously, it worked via my g903 mouse, a USB wireless dongle. I haven’t tried the other models yet. My motherboard has a unique signature in the BIOS if you need to view all options. The attached image shows remaining devices in the command prompt. Please let me know if this approach will help.
I also realized the issue might be related to the keyboard being mistaken for a mouse. I turned off keyboard wake and it stopped showing any wake signal. Network card settings were disabled as well. Now I can’t wake the mouse from the keyboard, but it’s a big improvement.
If you need to wake it from a specific keyboard or multiple devices, let me know. Thank you for your help. I appreciate it.
It's been a long struggle for years. I was frustrated when the PC kept waking up after trying to put it to sleep multiple times, especially because the mouse wasn't turning off quickly enough. I didn’t even consider checking the keyboards. I tested each keyboard by disabling the “allow device to wake” option and then putting the computer to sleep. If it still woke up, I reversed the setting and moved on until the mouse stopped interrupting. Now I can simply press the keyboard to wake the PC, which is a big relief. No more endless attempts to silence the mouse before Windows registers my next action. Thank you!
I finally discovered a reliable method to turn it off. Initially, use powercfg -devicequery wake_armed without closing the window. After that, put your PC to sleep and wake it using your mouse. Next, run powercfg /lastwake. You'll see the VID of the device handling the wake-up. Open Device Manager, review the devices listed at that time, and in the properties details, select the device instance path. Match the VID from the second command and disable the wake feature.
Apologies again for bringing this discussion back up. The method above doesn't function properly for hibernation, especially for me. I attempted to turn off "allow this device to wake up computer" in Device Manager, but discovered the virtual keyboard is the source of the issue. Steps: 0. Execute a command with admin rights 1. Use powercfg -devicequery wake_armed and record the devices 2. Disconnect the USB receiver from your Logitech mouse and rerun the command. You should see fewer devices listed. For me, the missing entry is labeled "HID Keyboard Device (002)". This makes sense since the mouse needs to mimic a keyboard for macros. 3. With admin privileges, run powercfg -devicedisablewake "device name" – for example, powercfg -devicedisablewake "HID Keyboard Device (002)" as a test. 4. Put your computer to sleep or hibernate and attempt to click or move the mouse to verify. This is important because the keyboard section under "Location: on Logitech G HUB Virtual Keyboard" in Device Manager isn't visible, indicating it's actually part of the mouse setup.
