Windows 10: Windows repeatedly sets power plan back to balanced

Everytime I switch to high performance in the power plans, I later come back to find that Windows has changed the power plan back to balanced.


I am running Windows 10 build 19042, I don't have any antiviruses or other programs that could be causing this change.

Power plan?

Upon checking, it seems that there's nothing wrong with your system. It is usual that you have to double-click your mouse before your monitor wakes up.

For the meantime, we suggest changing the power plan by following the steps below:

• Press Windows key + S.
• Type in Power Settings.
• On the pop-up window, choose Additional power settings.
• Select High performance.

After changing the power plan, we suggest that you monitor the changes made and check if that will work for you.
