    I did not ASK how to turn off efficiency mode in Chrome. I asked how to turn it off for EVERYTHING. This is a desktop computer and does not have a battery for the OPERATING SYSTEM to save.

    I have my computer set to AMD's Ryzen Performance Mode and Windows still does this. So this is not the solution to the problem.

    MS also writes off the gaming community with one hand and begs the gaming community to buy its hardware with the other. They assume that everyone is a 40 something man using a laptop on a business trip and ignore the fact that desktop computers do not even USE a battery, let alone a battery that needs to use less power.
