Windows 11: Change power mode to save energy or improve performance
UPDATED 7/25/2024: In Windows 11, a power mode (or plan) is a group of specific hardware and system settings (such as screen brightness, sleep, and others) to control a computer's energy use. Windows 11 uses a "balanced" power mode that automatically balances performance and energy use on appropriate hardware. However, depending on your computer or situation, you can change the power mode to save energy (and battery life) or increase performance at the expense of higher energy use.
In previous versions, there was an option to set your preferred power plan from the Battery menu on the taskbar, but in Windows 11, you can only configure these settings from the Settings app or Control Panel.
In this guide, I will show you the steps to change the power mode on a laptop or desktop running Windows 11.
