I'm generating a .bat script to check some configurations on our desktops for some devices to work better.
I need to disable the checkbox "Allow Computer to Turn Off This Device to Save Power" for a USB device on device manager using this bat.
Is there any way to do that by command prompt (cmd) or registry entry?

    This .bat worked for me with a given DeviceID :

    @echo off
    REM deviceID="USB\VID_1A40&PID_0101\5&212AC8FC&0&8"
    set deviceID="USB\VID_1A40^&PID_0101\5^&212AC8FC^&0^&8"
    PowerShell -Command "Get-WmiObject -Namespace 'Root\WMI' -Class 'MSPower_DeviceEnable' | Where-Object { $_.InstanceName -like '*%deviceID%*' } | ForEach-Object { $_.Enable = $false; $_.Put() }"
