I am trying to set up some alternative startup for my labtop. Either wake-on-LAN, usb wake up, ac power wake up, etc. basically any alternative to starting it up other than pressing the power button. Im familar with wake on lan, but I cant find the options to set it in BIOS. Most people suggest checking the advanced BIOS settings, but there are none to be found. Is there some work around for this? Maybe a way to access the advanced settings in windows 11?

Sorry, but apart from business notebooks and some high-end gaming PCs, accessing Advanced BIOS option on HP PCs is not possible.
Some OEMs lock out the advanced BIOS options to prevent customers from making changes to options that can destabilize or otherwise damage the PC -- and then send it back for repair under warranty claiming they did nothing to it.
I know only SOME of the advanced options are risky, but it's simpler to disable access to ALL advanced options than to allow/disallow on an individual option basis.
That's the course of action that HP has chosen. No one from here is going to provide you any means of getting around that.

Well I didnt necessarily mean the work around had to be in violation of HPs well thought out BIOS, but more meant, is there any way to remotely turn on a HP computer by any other means, other then pressing the only power button? Like there is no application level access they would of provided for remote power on?
