    Power Plan stuck in Balanced Mode.

    I have this bug for some time now but since i couldn't find a fix for it i decided to post it here to see if anybody could help me.

    Basically, my power plan is stuck on Balanced mode and whenever i try to choose the Maximum Performance mode it just resets to Balanced Mode again.

    I have tried to create my own power plan but with no avail, it still reverts to balanced mode. Does anyone know the fix for this?

    Thank you guys in advance and sorry for any spelling/grammar mistakes, English is not my native language.

    Power Plan Stuck on Balanced + No Minidumps being created

    Hi, many thanks for your response, I have run through all of the steps, other than 4. which is not possible since I am running a desktop.

    No issues were found in the SFC Scan & DISM, and all that the troubleshooting and resetting to defaults did was lower the
    Minimum Processor State and engage 'Moderate' link state PCIE power savings as they reset these to the defaults for the Balanced power plan - which I am still stuck on at the page shown in image.

    Each time I select High Performance, the marker jumps back to Balanced. I was able to fix this by running the powercfg –restoredefaultschemes command suggested in

    This Thread
    but each time I reboot the system, the problem returns.

    Thanks in Advance.

    Power plan always switches automatically

    Hi,

    I am using a desktop pc and I am constantly having the problem with my power plan.

    I want my PC to stick at the Balanced power plan, but it always switches to power saver by itself! It seems like some program that my PC will auto switch the power plans during the time. I even tried to make a new plan. The PC still switches between balance
    and power savor by itself.
