certain times of the day, even when the computer is plugged into a direct power source.
● Thermal management—Allows you to control processor and cooling fan settings to manage performance, system surface
temperature, and fan noise.
● Battery extender—Conserves battery charge by affecting CPU power level, screen brightness and keyboard illumination
levels, and by muting audio.
● Alerts management—Enable or disable adapter, battery, docking station, thermal, and other types of alerts.
● Group policies—You can easily apply default settings and/or prevent users from changing power alerts system events,
power management, thermal management, battery extender, and battery settings.
