    Cyberlink Powerdirector 15 changing my power plan settings


    As the title says when ever i use Cyberlink Powerdirector 15 as soon as i click the x to exit program it resets my power scheme changing screen timeout and changing my ssd idle time to 0 if i wanted it to be 0 i would set it my self, how do i prevent PWD15 from doing what i consider an illegal action i mean what Brainiac at Cyberlink Development came up with the idea that changing my plan settings when the program quits will make it work much better i use dual screen and find the screen timeout darn annoying do i really need to "hack" my reg to make it stick or use the gpedit.msc to prevent changes i really have a hard time accepting that as a solution Cyberlinks response so far ................. 1 year later upgrade to the new PWD 17 and see all the improvements me made and it not even a joke that is how they do it.
    ill provide a log file
    hmm when i went to copy the error i noticed 2 new resets but this time from 2 MS programs for 3 months now all i have seen in the event viewer was this
    Process C:\Program Files\CyberLink\PowerDirector15\PDR.exe (process ID:1736) reset policy scheme from {4cbed35f-1391-4afc-97bc-0c375ebf2220} to {4cbed35f-1391-4afc-97bc-0c375ebf2220}

    i give up

    :)

  2. Power Plan keeps changing

    Method 1:

    Let’s run the power troubleshooter and check if that helps.

    a. Press Windows key on the keyboard.

    b. In the search box, type Troubleshooting and press Enter.

    c. Click on ‘System and Security’ and click on ‘Power’ click on next to run the troubleshooter.

    Method 2:

    If the issue persists, I suggest you to restore the power plans to default and check if it helps.

    Step 1: Reset and restore the power plans to default:

    Right-click on Start button and click on Command Prompt (Admin).

    In the command prompt, type powercfg –restoredefaultschemes and hit Enter.

    Exit command prompt.

    Note: This would reset the power plan settings to default. Any customized power plans are would be removed.

    Step 2:

    Once the power plan is reset to default, you may create a new power plan and customize the same according to your needs.

    Refer to the link:

    Power plans: Frequently asked questions

    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/po...

    Note: Applies to Windows 10.

    If that still does not work, try the following:

    Open Start, type: CMD

    Right click CMD

    Click Run as administrator

    Type in at the prompt OR Copy and Paste these one at a time : (Hit enter after each)

    Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealth

    Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth

    Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth

    Also run the System File Checker utility:

    Open Start, type: CMD

    Right click CMD

    Click Run as administrator

    At the Command Prompt, type: sfc/scannow

    This will check for any integrity violations

    Restart your system
