    Have they already made an option available to disable this **** function, or are they still thinking, reading books, or what, we need to have the option to disable this or Microsoft no longer respects "customers".

    It's funny that no one solves this, we don't own our equipment, shame on these people who call themselves professionals (Microsoft)... Note that this harms the customer, we are waiting for a solution.

    I was experiencing trouble accessing particular streaming platforms in Chrome or Edge on Windows 11. Those green leaves popped up instantly and I couldn't get to the log-on pages at all. This was with only a single tab open in the browser, no other programmes/apps running in the foreground of my machine.

    After weeks of just thinking I was doing something wrong or my ISP was trash, I came across this thread and used your suggested solution. Finally - the green leaves are no more! Or for now at least. Thanks for sharing.

    Hello Lawrence Simpson1, unfortunately it doesn't help, when activating the Windows energy management efficiency mode the core clock remains at maximum ok, if I use it this way all day I compromise my equipment ok, this is not the solution, I think I was explicit in my answers that the problem is not just with browsers, even so, I thank you for your attention and I hope that Microsoft resolves this chronic problem...
