hi, I got the i7 1165g7 mainboard and did what Adam_Kosherick did and soldered the sw1.
that worked will until the wire got rid of by accident and now i can only turn on my mainboard with Tweezers. so is there any way i can turn on my mainboard that is not that annoying? like with a keyboard with some linux script?
You could set the bios to have it to turn on when power is supplied, then use an inline switch on the usb-c cable supplying power.

If you did not save the SW1 from when you desoldered it, why not just resolder two wires going to a little switch like what @Adam_Kosherick did? You could even use the same little wires like he did with the two pin connector and power it on with a paperclip shorting the two pins briefly.
Otherwise @lbkNhubert suggestion is a way to initiate power on with power coming from USBC. Sometimes this does not work reliably as others have had issues with it not always working in the past.
