    I have the Clevo W230ST and I disabled the always on usb port long time ago and don't know how to re-enable it.
    I recall that there is something like the FN+Shutdown button but it doesn't work.

    Thanx

    Yes I did, but didn't find an option for that. I have never updated my BIOS, if it helps.

    Are you referring to USB selective suspend in Windows power options?

    press "FN" plus "Power" button, then the lowest USB 3 port will remain powered. :)
