Rear USB port on back keeps power after a PC shutdown.

I have a Lenovo gaming desktop 17IAB that I noticed when I shut PC Power Off, a USB port still has power. I have a lighted keyboard plugged into it and the keys stay lit after powering down the PC, is this normal. Should the PC do that?  If so what is the purpose or is there a problem with my PC? How should that port be used to it's fullest if this is correct? Where can I find information about this in documentation if this is normal behavior? I don't use the PC for games.

Hi tjTim,

Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!

This is normal for your device because it has a Smart Power On feature to turn on the computer with the keyboard because it has a feature, you can disable it from your BIOS. If you have the Lenovo Vantage Application you can also check the status of the USB Always On settings (turn it off).
