Shortcut that replicates the button sleep for Windows Tablet 8.1

I am trying to create a shortcut icon on a Windows 8.1 tablet that does the following.  I hope someone with knowledge of Microsoft can answer definitively.

It must accurately reproduce the function being called when I quickly press the power button on the side of the tablet. What do I mean by that?  I mean that when I push the power button.  The Tablet goes into a State of "sleep".  If the button is pushed once again, or the menu button 'Start' then the Tablet refers to the lock screen.  I currently have a Toshiba Encore 2, but I am aware of postings on the internet that others have different tablets like Dell coming Pro.

Because someone will suggest.  There is a particular reason, I want to avoid the power button.  These tablets seem to have a very small, delicate, poorly designed power button that slides out of the internal contact.  I'm afraid that the button won't survive the abuse of my children, so I'll try to give them a soft touch.  The goal is to reduce the time they need the physical button.

I've been around the internet on this.  I want to clarify things that DO NOT WORK on THIS TABLET.   In addition, nothing is 'evil' with the tablet.  This is something that is not well documented, or is not possible on Windows 8/8.1 Microsoft

1. it DOES NOT WORK: Rundll32.exe powrprof.dll, SetSuspendState - it hibernates the tablet. What I'm looking for.

2. it DOES NOT WORK: Rundll32.exe powrprof.dll, SetSuspendState sleep - this also extended to the tablet. What I'm looking for.

3. it DOES NOT WORK: Rundll32.exe powrprof.dll, SetSuspendState 0,1,0 - this also extended to the tablet. What I'm looking for.

4 powercfg-h off failover makes 1-3 doesn't DO NOTHING, don't sleep reported, suggested, documented

5. in the course of running powercfg /a reports that s1 - s3 sleep and hybrid are not supported "when connected standby is supported.

6. I don't want a solution consisting in autohotkey - I'm looking for a management system dll that can be called from a shortcut without having to install a utility

7. it would seem that the bios/firmware that supports connected disabled standby mode options 1-3 + 4 as viable

8. the shortcuts are not what I'm looking for on a tablet like win - x or alt - f4 - I am aware of these and how they work

9. I know that I can get to sleep using the power icon in the menu of charms.  In fact, this icon works in the way, I'm looking, but is less convenient that just touching an icon in the start menu.

I guess what I'm looking for is.

1. explanation of this sleep mode, I want to talk to (is it connected standby?)
2 clarification about whether this "standby" is accessible via a dll or another system call which can be shortened would be - of course there is a system call because the charms of power icon is accessed.

Thank you for any input constructive or educational.

The closest I could find is to create a vbs script and save it > create a shortcut to the vbs script

Dim ObjShell
Set objShell = CreateObject
objShell.ShutdownWindows
Set objShell = nothing
Set WshShell = CreateObject ("WScript.Shell")
With objShell
WScript.Sleep 200
WshShell.AppActivate "closing Windows.
WshShell.SendKeys "ss".
WshShell.SendKeys "{TAB}".
WshShell.SendKeys "{Enter}".
Ends with
Set objShell = Nothing

    Hello

    If you have a product key on a sticker in your computer, this means that you have an OEM product key. If you have OEM keys, this means that the windows you have here is preinstalled.

    If you reinstall windows OEM copy, you must use either the original manufacturer recovery disk or the recovery partition. If you use one of the people, should not be put to any start-up because the windows OEM versions are technically preactivated.

    If you don't have a disc or a recovery partition, you can contact your OEM (DELL) so that they can send you a disk. Alternatively, you can contact Microsoft Support just in case. : D

  • How to get a product key, that I had a new hard drive installed in the computer shop and it seems that there is no key for windows 7

    Original title: window 7

    Hi can one tell me how to get a product key, that I had a new hard drive installed in the computer shop and it seems that there is no key for windows 7, I just brought Office 2016 and he did not finish the load down with the windows key 7.

    Because Windows 7 is in limited stock because Microsoft ended sales in October 2013, this created demand due to its rarity. This means the retail boxed copies request a bonus, while the OEM System Builder copies remain affordable.

    Full version (retail):

    -Includes the rights of transfer to another computer.

    -Does not require a qualifying earlier version of Windows.

    -Expensive

    Upgrade version (detail):

    -Includes the rights of transfer to another computer.

    -require a qualifying earlier version of Windows.

    -Expensive, but less expensive full version

    OEM System Builder version:

    The OEM of Windows 7 versions are identical to the versions commercial full license with the following exception:

    -OEM versions don't offer any free direct support from Microsoft technical support Microsoft

    -OEM Licenses are tied to the computer first you install and activate it on

    -OEM versions allow all hardware upgrades except for an upgrade to a different model motherboard

    -OEM versions does not move directly from an older Windows operating system

    There is nothing wrong to use it too, especially that all future versions of Windows will be full versions.

    You can find software OEM System Builder of dozens of online merchants. The current price for OEM Windows 7 Professional Newegg, for example, is $ 140. When I checked a few minutes ago, Amazon offered packages OEM Windows 7 Professional from several vendors at prices ranging from $ 101 to $ 150. When I checked earlier, a package specifically designed for reconditioned PCs cost only $ 50 for a 64-bit copy.

    There is no technical limitation to prevent you from using OEM software on your computer, although this software only works for a clean install, not an upgrade. In the past, Microsoft has been remarkably inconsistent in his advice to clients on the question of whether this practice is allowed. (See "is allowed to use Windows OEM on your own PC? Don't ask Microsoft. »)

    Hello:

    Your model has the AMD/Intel switchable graphics.

    It is unlikely that the W8 AMD graphics driver will work on W8.1.

    Normally, you can use some of the drivers W7/W8 on W8.1, but the graphics is very doubtful - not switchable graphics anyway.

    You can run the windows 8.1 upgrade wizard and see what it reports.

    Windows 10 will go out the next Wednesday July 29, 2015. I have Windows 7 and I have technical problems with the Guide in Windows Media Center lists. This isn't updated Guide lists and I wonder if this problem is related to the upgrade of Windows 10?

    I called a technician to answer Microsoft desktop and the technician fixed my computer errors. Unfortunately, he could not fix this problem. Even though I always reset and auto update of listings in the Guide, the result will prove be the same with "no data."

    Windows Media Center has given me many error messages:

    Please don't waste your time trying to solve the WMC, it is the expiration of the license that is causing the problem. I know it's frustrating.

    On the other hand, is - can anyone say with certainty that WMC is available on Windows 10? No charge for the upgrade to Windows 7?

    The way I see it, not providing the function of key in W7 WMC guide is motivation upgrading to W10, assuming that WMC is available.
