I am trying to find the USB Selective Suspend Setting in my computer, I am on windows 11 and found the power options, the next step would be to select USB Settings {expand} and then disable the selective suspend setting, but I cant find it anywhere. I am trying to change this setting in order to have a better Virtual Reality experience with my Oculus Link. This simple hunt has turned into a 2+ hour problem. I am using an Asus ROG Flow X13 if that matters, I thought maybe the different product might have an affect on what you can and cannot see in the Power Options.

    Hi, I'm Robinson, and I’m happy to help you today.

    I know how frustrating this may be for you but I'll do my very best to help you.

    You can disable the USB Selective Suspend in the device manager.

    1-Right-click on Start and select Device manager

    2-Expand Universal Serial Bus controllers

    3-In this list, there are usually quite a few USB Root Hubs and USB controllers. Unless you know exactly which one your device is plugged in to, then you will need to perform this change on every hub and controller listed here

    4-Right click a Root Hub and click properties

    5-Select the “Power Management” tab.

    6-Uncheck the “Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power” setting and click OK.

    7-Repeat as needed for the other USB Root Hubs/controllers.

    I am sad to say that this did not fix anything, but its not much of a bother anyway as my VR runs fine, the only problem I now face is it cant support enough power to power a USB 3.0 Hub that I plug into my USB 3.0 port only if it has more than 1 device plugged into it (it has 4 ports), I will probably just buy a Type C - Type A Hub and use the type c port on my laptop. I apologize for the late reply, I very rarely check my emails! Thank you for your help though!
