Unlock/Unhide all Power Plan Settings/Options on Windows 10/11

readme.md

Unlock-PowerCfg 1.1.0

Unlock every Power Plan Scheme/Setting on Windows 10/11. Just paste in an elevated PowerShell.

Use this instead of some incomplete PowerCfg commands or old .reg files as this script works even for newer/unknown settings: It will look up the PowerSettings registry hive and add or change a value (Attributes = 2) to reveal it.

Requirements:

• Windows 7 - 11
• PowerShell v2 - v7 with admin rights
