Windows 10 updates can change a lot of settings and one of them is the Power Plan. Many users find the Selected Plan as Balanced only after they go through a Windows update. There should be three default power plans – Power Saver, Balanced, and High Performance. But, most often after the update, you will find the other two default options missing. So, how do you bring them back? Here’s how..
While all this is said and done, sometimes, much to your dismay, you may notice that in Power Options, one of the power plan or plans goes missing. You’ve probably even searched the web for solutions and none of them worked to restore the power plans.
Here are some solutions you can try that will help you get back your Windows 10 missing power plans.
In Windows, a power plan is a set of hardware and system options that defines how power is used and preserved by your device.
The three built-in power plans include: Balanced, Power Saver and High Performance. All these can be customized for your systems, or you can create new plans based on the existing ones, or a completely new power plan from scratch.
Balanced plan offers full performance when needed, and saves the power when you don’t need it. Power saver, on the other hand saves your power by reducing performance and screen brightness. High performance maximizes your screen brightness and my increase performance; it uses more energy.
There’s another power plan: Ultimate performance. This is only available by default in Windows 10 Pro for Workstations edition starting with build 17101 for ultimate performance on higher end computers.
Any changes you make to the settings of any power plan affects all users that chose the same plan as their default power scheme.
For Windows 10, a new user interface allows you to change the power related options. The classic Control Panel is losing its features and may be replaced in entirety by the Settings app which already has most settings from the control pane.
However, Settings doesn’t have the ability to delete a power plan yet, so you’re still stuck with Control Panel.
