I just reinstalled the drivers and software for my Radeon RX 6700 XT. I mistakenly added PRO Edition instead of Adrenaline Edition, which removed the "sleep" option from the power settings in Windows. I’m not sure why this happened, but I believe installing Adrenaline Edition will fix it. I thought about sharing this so others might face the same problem and find a way to enjoy PRO edition benefits while keeping the "sleep" button available on my desktop. The odd layout comes from Windows capturing both screens instead of just one.

Interesting, thanks for the input. However, you should avoid using Standby, Sleep, Hibernate, etc., as they can lead to problems with the operating system over time. A sudden power cut might damage your file system. Even on an older Core 2 Duo with an SSD, these options are largely ineffective since a cold boot only takes a few seconds.
