Set up a separate power source for Windows 7 on Laptop?
The settings in Windows can be said to be quite good, but may not be suitable for everyone or in certain situations. That's why Windows doesn't 'fix' them and users can change or create their own customizations.
If you are downloading a file that is large and has to go out, it is likely that the download process will be interrupted by the intervention of the options in Power Options. Therefore, it is best to reset or create yourself a personal setting in the Power Options to activate each time you need it.
Here are the steps to set up a separate power source for Windows
Step 1 : First, right-click on the Pin icon and click on the Power Options option
Step 2 : The Power Options setup window will appear, and here you will see 2 default options that Microsoft has set up. Go to and click the Create a power plan option
In the next screen interface, you will be prompted to name your settings using your customized power source. Above are the options available for you to choose and customize again. When you have named and selected, click Next
Next, set up the action options like turning off the screen, switching to Sleep mode after how long it takes to use the battery or charging and the option to adjust the screen brightness . Please adjust all to your liking and when you like, press Create to create
Once created, you will be taken back to the Power Options interface with a personal Power option that will appear and replace the default options that Microsoft has set up.
That's it, when you need to use it, just go to Power Options and click on the setup option you created. Pretty simple, isn't it?
