Win10 switches power plan skills to extend battery life

Windows 10 systems can run on desktops, laptops, and servers. To better accommodate these different devices, Microsoft has designed several power plans. The choice of power plan is more important for notebooks or tablets, because it is directly related to the notebook's battery life.

However, if you want to switch between different power plans, you need to enter the control panel's "Power Options" (in Win10 Preview 10122, "Settings" is still not possible to achieve this switch ). There are three default power plans for the system: balance, energy saving, and high performance. “High-performance” is hidden by default. Because of the high power consumption, users who have high requirements for computer performance can be considered for desktop users. General users can use the “balance” program to meet daily needs. For notebook and tablet users, use the “Energy Saver” program in battery mode to maximize battery life. Of course, some OEMs will provide a more detailed additional power plan, which is not discussed in this article.

For the default 3 power plans of the Win10 system, if you can achieve “one button”, it is more convenient and efficient, and can be easily realized by adding the desktop right-click menu item.

The specific code is as follows:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

Paste this code into the newly created text document and save it as “all files", the file name is free, and the suffix name is changed to “.reg” . After double-clicking the run, all the way & ldquo; OK & rdquo;, complete the registry content to add.

If you want to cancel the right-click menu to add an item, just follow the above method:

Only when there is a swap between different power plans can the notebook be balanced while taking care of the battery The endurance is maximized.
