i've tried command prompt which is like the only idea that comes up on youtube or google and it still doesn't work,

:)

 

Getting only balanced power plan

Hi,

Please note down the Balanced plan settings if you've customized them.

Then run the following command in the Admin CMD prompt:

• powercfg.exe -restoredefaultschemes
  

This restores the missing schemes.

Reconfigure the Balanced plan settings again.

 

Power plan stuck at balanced mode when trying to switch

My power plan keeps switching to balanced and I tried the command prompt and the restoredefaultschemes didn’t work, and I need help on why it’s stuck

 

I now have over 100 addtional power plans, how do I delete them other than one at a time?

Hi Mike,

You may try deleting power plans by following the steps below:

• If you are deleting custom power plans, open a command prompt by right-clicking on the
  Start button and selecting Command Prompt, then go to step 3.
• If you are deleting built-in Balanced, Power Saver, or
  High Performance power plans, open an elevated command prompt by right-clicking on the
  Start button and selecting Command Prompt (Admin), then go to step 3.
• Copy and paste the following command into the command prompt, and press
  Enter. This will give you a list of all existing power plans on the PC along with their
  GUID. Note the GUIDs that are listed next to the power plans that you want to delete:
  power cfg /list
• If the power plan you want to delete is currently set as your active plan, then you will need to set another power plan as your active plan first.
  (Note: An asterisk * to the right of the power plan in step 3 above will indicate your current active plan.)
• Type the following command into the command prompt, and press Enter
  to delete the power plan: powercfg -delete GUID
  • Note: Substitute GUID in the command above with the actual GUID of the power plan you want to delete.
    
    For example:
    
    powercfg -delete fcbb086e-4380-47d6-8a79-f4a099526dfa
• When finished, you may close the command prompt.
  

Let us know how it goes.
