Power Mode Slider

Since the Power Mode Slider can be set differently for Plugged In, and not Plugged In, why would I ever want it set to anything other than Best Performance when Plugged In?

 

Fall Creators Update: Missing power mode slider in the taskbar

Hello Mark,

If you have a missing battery slider after the Fall Creators Update, it’s likely because you are using the High Performance power plan. Although it shouldn’t work like that, but it seems that if the high performance plan is enabled, the battery slider disappears.
The fix in this case is simple; select the Balanced power plan and the slider will come back.

We recommend that you post a report regarding the power mode slider in Microsoft Feedback Hub. To post a report, you may follow the steps provided in this

Fall Creators Update: Missing power mode slider in the taskbar

This is a bug, as explained in this article.

"if you switch to the balanced power mode from the Control Panel, the slider will disappear again and that’s the bug." So basically after switching power modes via control panel, the power mode slider goes away and
seemingly cannot be fixed (even after returning to to balanced power mode).

"However, once you open the Control Panel and switch to the balanced power mode, the battery slider will disappear again. There is a big bug. It may be casued by the result of settings migrating from
the Control Panel to the Settings app."
