Hi

Advanced power options went missing after the last update. No processor options, usb, gpu power, etc. The usual fix of CSEnabled in regedit is no longer there. The fan speed is out of control even with the slider bar set to better battery. Any help would be appreciated.  thanks

Hi All,

I too was fed up with this issue getting nowhere online.

I created a short script that will change req items to allow for advanced options to be displayed.

$sting77 = "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\PowerSettings"<br><br>$querylist =  reg query $sting77<br><br>foreach ($regfolder in $querylist){<br><br>    <br><br>    $active = $regfolder -replace "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE" , "HKLM:"<br><br>    <br><br>    Get-ItemProperty -Path $active<br><br>    Set-ItemProperty -Path "$active" -Name "Attributes" -Value '2'<br><br>    <br><br>    }

Run this in an Elevated Powershell ISE and it should fix it straight away as mine are now showing:

Thanks

    I'm already looking into if Linux / Unbuntu will work for me. I wouldn't mind the loss of the option in the Home verison of windows but it should be

    there in the Pro version.

    My next work PC will surely be linux based, for gaming I will probably still use Windows, or perhaps just buy a consoler or something. I am truly annoyed how MS pushes their bloatware every month or so with a new "update" but ignores fundamental flaws in their product

    Very confusing. Not sure if it's Microsoft, or how a manufacturer like say a Dell, sets up the software in a manner that they think their product will work the best? That's all fine, as long as it works well. If not, I'd prefer to be able to tune it. Maybe Microsoft 11 will change it; hopefully but I doubt it. I'm not going to rush in and upgrade to 11. Not after all the bad update problems they have had this year.

    I think it's very clear that Microsoft is moving toward the Apple approach that tries to eliminate power users. In other words, they don't care that this is difficult. They are intentionally dumbing down the operating system. Argh.

    I have to wait and see on October 5th, if Windows 11 seems to have the same power issue but likely does. 🤔
