Windows has many “advanced power settings” you can adjust. These options let you choose between performance and battery life, control what Windows does when you have a critical battery level, and tweak what pressing the power button and closing the lid does.
This works on all modern versions of Windows, including Windows 10 and Windows 7.
How to Find Advanced Power Settings
To find these options, head to Control Panel > Hardware and Sound > Power Options. Click the “Change Plan Settings” link to the right of the power plan you want to configure. This is separate from Windows 10’s power mode options, for some reason.
Each power plan has its own advanced options configuration, so you can quickly switch between combinations of settings.
Click “Change Advanced Power Settings” to find these options.
