Windows 10: Advanced Power Options Keep Changing After Windows Restarts.

Hey, so basically when I'm on battery my maximum processor state goes to 50%. I change it to 100% because I use it for school and like it is fast. As soon as I restart my laptop it becomes really slow and CPU frequency caps at 0.69GHz and at 46% usage making it take ages to load like 5 programs. And sure enough, when I launch the control panel again and go to power options the maximum CPU state is set to 50% again. I'm on a Lenovo Ideapad 5 2020 With windows 10 home version 2[COLOR=rgba9, 10, 10, 1]0H2 OS Build 19042.928.[/COLOR]

System not responding to changes to sleep/ power options

Hi,



The usual cause of the system not to respond with any changes that you’ve made to put it on sleep mode can be related to an incompatible device driver or a software conflict has occurred. Since you’ve taken some troubleshooting steps, let’s try to isolate
this concern by starting your PC in safe mode. This will help us determine if there are default settings, application, and service that are causing the issue. Here are the steps:

• From Settings

• Type Settings in the Search box.
• Select Update & security > Recovery.
• Under Advanced startup, select Restart now.
• After your PC restarts to the Choose an option screen, select
  Troubleshoot > Advanced options > Startup Settings >
  Restart.
• After your PC restarts, you'll see a list of options. Select 4 or F4 to start your PC in
  Safe Mode. Or if you'll need to use the Internet, select 5 or F5 for
  Safe Mode with Networking.

• From the sign-in screen

• Restart your PC. When you get to the sign-in screen, hold the Shift key down while you select
  Power icon > Restart.
• After your PC restarts to the Choose an option screen, select
  Troubleshoot > Advanced options > Startup Settings >
  Restart.
• After your PC restarts, you'll see a list of options. Select 4
  or F4 to start your PC in Safe Mode. Or if you'll need to use the Internet, select
  5 or F5 for Safe Mode with
  Networking.

Just in case that the issue won’t happen while in safe mode, this means the default settings and the basic drivers aren’t causing the computer not to respond to the changes.



In addition, we’d like to confirm if you’ve tried the Restore default settings for this plan option under
Power Options. This will revert all the changes that you’ve made already and return to its original settings. It can also wipe these changes that you’ve previously made with the Power settings. Follow these steps:

• Type Power Options in the search box.
• Select Change when computer sleeps.
• Click Restore default settings for this plan.
• Restart your PC and check the result.

We’re just here if you need further help.
