You can also manage and change how Battery Saver works but there is one thing you have to do first, which is to identify applications that use multiple batteries.
Before customizing the settings of Battery Saver, it is best to see which applications are using a lot of batteries and stop them. Doing so will help you increase battery life even if the Battery Saver feature is on or off. Open the app's Settings by clicking the Start button and clicking on the gear icon. From here, select System . You will see Battery in the left column. Continue clicking on that icon.
Here you will see two headings, ' Overview ' and ' Battery Saver '. Below Overview, you will see general battery information, which includes the remaining battery percentage and actual time estimate. How many minutes is below this information, you will see a link called ' Battery usage by app '. Click on it to display a detailed analysis of how much your battery is consuming.
The applications listed here include "receive notifications, send notifications, update, even if you don't use them". That means the listed applications are consuming your precious battery time. If you see an application in the list that you don't need to use, click on the application and turn it off. You can do this by clicking on an individual application and clicking " Never allowed in background ". When done, press the back arrow in the top left corner of the window to return to the Battery settings .
Battery Saver automatically turns on when the battery remains 20%. If you want to increase or decrease that threshold, just move the slider back and forth. If you want to disable Battery Saver, simply uncheck the box labeled ' Turn battery saver on automatically if my battery falls below .' You can also turn off the ' Lower screen brightness ' option, but the screen consumes a lot of power. So it is best not to turn off this feature.
Compared to the old power plan, Battery Saver is a simple tool and much easier to use in protecting the small battery of the computer. If you want to use old savings tools, they are still available in Windows. In the Windows Settings section, click System . In the left column, click your mouse or click " Power & Sleep ". Scroll down until you see the ' Additional power settings ' link then click.
This brings us to the Power Option section of the Control Panel , which is very familiar to users of previous versions of Windows. For those who are not yet proficient, you can choose between pre-configured savers. You can customize each item by clicking on the " Change plan settings " next to each item. In addition, you can create your own battery saver by clicking " Create a power plan " in the left column.
