Windows 10: Windows Power mode

Can I switch to Ultimate Power mode only for gaming and then switch back to low power mode, everytime, when I am not gaming? Incase of Power outages which is quite frequent my UPS can hold longer in Low Power mode compared to Ultimate Power mode. Any suggestion will be helpful.

sleep mode and power options not working on Windows 10

Hi,

Thank you for contacting Microsoft Forums.

For issues with sleep mode and power options follow the steps provided below.

Run the Power troubleshooter and check.

Follow the steps to run the troubleshooter:

• Open Control Panel.
• Type Troubleshooting in search and click
  Troubleshooting.
• Now type Power in the search option.
• Click on Power troubleshooter to run.

I would suggest you to try updating the Display driver and check if the issue persists. If you already have all the latest drivers from Windows updates, then I would suggest you to visit the computer manufacturer's website, download and install the latest
drivers in compatibility mode and check.

Hope this helps.
