    How do I turn on indexing while on battery power without the local group policy editor?


    I want to turn on indexing while on battery power. All sites I visited instructed me to use the group policy editor, which I don't have because I am using the Windows 10 Home edition. Is there a way to do this without the need to use the group policy editor?

    :)

    Automatically pause indexing when on battery power?

    Hi Mike,

    We understand that you want your PC to automatically pause indexing when using the battery power.

    Windows 10 only has the "Prevent indexing when running on battery power to conserve energy" option in the
    Local Group Policy Editor. You can follow these steps on how to enable it:

    • Type gpedit.msc in the Cortana search field, then select
      Edit group policy from the results.
    • Click Local Computer Policy from the left pane, then
      Computer Configuration      .
    • Click Administrative Templates, then Windows Components.
    • Select Search.
    • Locate and double-click "Prevent indexing when running on battery power to conserve energy" from the right pane.
    • Tick Enable, then click OK.

    Let us know what happens after enabling the above mentioned setting.

    Regards.
