Hello folks! I just bought my XPS 13 2015 i7 yesterday and today i upgraded it to windows 10.
After that I made a clean install of Windows 10 and installed all the driver via the website of dell.
But not im missing the Power Option "Max Power" I only have Balanced....ealier i even had the Power Option Dell on windows 8.1. And i have already installed the Dell Energy Control ultility....
What im doing wrong? Did i miss sth?
Im worried that i cant run my XPS now in Full Power mode... with the CPU config under Power Option .
Even the TDP level is default set to 15W and 2,6Ghz... anyone got the same problem and solved it?
-
Open Command/CMD and type:
Code:powercfg -restoredefaultschemes
-
so this command didnt solve the problem i still only see the Balanced one.... but if you have the Max Power energy plan in ur energy option could u make a screen shot of all the options maybe?
So i might be able to recreate my own Power option. -
Heh, sounds like MS (or Dell) thinks ' Balanced' is all you need ...
And can't do that; all the GUIDs will be different. Run this and upload the result:
Code:powercfg /qh > all_power_options.txt

hmm its in german i doub
t you can do anything with that!
but i found out a little trick:
I found in my registry that i do have the other 2 Energy Plans...dunno why they arent showed in my Plans... but i used the command:
powercfg /s xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx
and replaced the xx with the yellow marked name and my Max Power Plan showed up and was checked.... hmmm
EDIT: nvm i found the solution:
If you disable connected standby all Windows power plans are displayed and all advanced power functions are available.
Use Regedit and change the below:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power
Change the value of the key CsEnabled from 1 to 0 and reboot.
Found that on google xD so for those who want their energy plans back just do that! It worksLast edited: Oct 17, 2015 -
German or not doesn't matter, that's what the GUIDs are for; each links to a unique hardware device. Either way, good to hear you've got it fixed
.
For the hidden settings; search the 'root' of 'Power Options' in registry for the ' Attributes' dword. Every hit where it says value = '1' will be hidden to you in the 'Power Options' menu. Change it to '0' and that specific setting will be visible immediately, no reboot required.
Root of 'Power Options' (for anyone else who may be curious):
Code:HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\PowerSettings
