How to adjust Power Option on Windows 10 for the most efficient operation

While the balanced performance is good for many activities, it can cause delays for more demanding tasks like editing audio, video, and large files. Such high-data computations might require a higher level of performance in Power Options settings.

The Power Option changes you are about to make below are not in the Settings app, but are hidden in the Control Panel. Accessing this setting is very simple, just press Windows + X , then select Power Options in the menu that pops up.

Scroll down and open Additional power settings .

Depending on your computer, you will see several types of preset settings (balance, high performance, power saver - save). If the computer is already available, just switch to High performance .

At this point you can stop reading the article and experience the higher performance of your computer.

However, in case you do not have High Performance available or want to install more yourself, choose Create a power plan .

Name the plan any name and click Next .

Here you can choose your desired timeout:

1. Turn off the display: Turn off the screen.
2. Put the computer to sleep: Enter sleep mode.

After you have created a new plan, click Change plan settings next to it.

Continue with Change advanced power settings .

Here, do some of the following settings:

USB settings> USB selective suspend settings: Disabled .

Processor power management> Minimum processcor state: 100 .

After the setup is complete, click Apply to save the changes and OK exits the window.

Finally, remember to select the plan you just created in Choose or customize a power plan .

If you have trouble when your computer is running slowly, error processing heavy data, the Power Options settings will somewhat improve that.

Good luck!
