No Power Management Options

anyone any ideas?

Did you make any system changes, apply updates, or install new programs just before the problem started?
Do you have a Restore Point and/or System Backup Image from before the problem started?

Seeing "None" for "powercfg -requests" is not a problem.
It just means you don't have any requests from other devices, such as another PC on your network.

Are you saying you don't have a "Power Options" icon in Control Panel?
I've never seen the Power Options Icon missing, so that would be an issue.
Or, is Power Options in Control Panel and it just doesn't work?

Try a System File Check:
SFC /SCANNOW Command - System File Checker

If that doesn't fix it, try a Clean Startup:
Troubleshoot Application Conflicts by Performing a Clean Startup

You could also try a Repair Install:
Repair Install

Hope this helps.

not sure whan this started and haven't made any system changes except for windows updates.

yes power mangement option is missing from the control panel. also if I right click the power icon on the task bar and then "More power options" nothing happens

also if I click "Adanced Power Options" in control panel nothing happens

ran SFC /SCANNOW is "did not find any integrity violations"

also if I type "Power Settings" is the search bar in start meny I get "Windows Mobility Center" ... is this normal ?

It is for a laptop.

ok thanks I watched this windows7 laptop get to power options

Power management - Windows 7 features - Microsoft Windows

but can't see how it was done from control panel

she types in "power" in the control panel search box and gets Power Options. When I do that I get Advanced Power Options (which does nothing) and Windows Mobility Center (which works). Is this normal? If so how fo I get to Power Options on a laptop?
