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 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. 🤔

    Here's my confusion. Is the absence of these power management options by design on the part of Microsoft, or is it a wide spread glitch? They are absent on my laptop, but on my desktop, same build, same version, they are there. My laptop is dropping wifi connection after sleep, so all I wanted to do is disable disconnect to save power.

    How to enable power management tab settings:

    1. Launch your Registry Editor (Windows Search and type Regedit).2. Navigate to: Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power3. Select the entry called CsEnabled4. Change the Value data from 1 to 0 and select OK 5. Reboot your machine.

    NOTE: If CsEnabled is not there, create a new DWORD (32-bit) Value. Name it CsEnabled, Base Hexadecimal & Value Data 0.

    My previous post on page 1 has the Windows official power scheme files with the CsEabled fix and is the only method that actually works!
