How to Set Up a Power Plan in Windows 10

A power plan is a collection of hardware and system settings that manages how
your computer uses and conserves power. Power plans can save energy, maximize
system performance, or balance energy conservation with performance. The default
power plans — Balanced and Power saver — meet most people's needs. But you
can modify settings for existing plans or create your own plan.

Choose or Customize a Power Plan

1. Find [Windows] icon in the lower-left corner of the screen. Right click it to show
selection menu. Select [Power Options] in the menu.
2. Choose a Power Plan by left clicking on one of the selections from the Power
Plan list. The Power Plan of [Balanced] is selected as an example here. Click
on the [Change plan settings] to the right of the power plan to customize a
power plan.
3. Choose the sleep and display settings you want your computer to use. Click
on [Change advanced power settings] to make changes to the selected power
plan settings to meet your needs.
4. To restore the selected Power Plan back to its default settings, click on
[Restore plan defaults] and then click [Yes] to confirm.
