Launch your Registry Editor (Windows button and type “Regedit“)
Navigate to: “Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power“
Select the entry called ‘CsEnabled‘
Change the “Value data” to “1” and select “OK“ (in the case it's alreaedy 1 try 0 and reboot and again to 1)
Reboot your machine
@banicpe thx very much! Setting Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power 'CsEnabled‘ to "0" and rebooting, worked for me. I can see all Advanced Energy Options now! Great!
Anyone knows why MS hid those settings in the first place? Is it dangerous to fiddle around with them (e.g. with processor performance settings)?
I have written my own version which works with PowerShell 7 and every Windows version: Unlock-PowerCfg.ps1
# Unlock Power Plans by disabling "Connected Standby"
Set-ItemProperty -Path 'HKLM:\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power' -Name 'CSEnabled' -Value 0 -Force
# Unlock hidden options
$PowerSettings = Get-ChildItem -Path 'HKLM:\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\PowerSettings' -Recurse -Depth 1 | Where-Object { $_.PSChildName -NotLike 'DefaultPowerSchemeValues' -and $_.PSChildName -NotLike '0' -and $_.PSChildName -NotLike '1' }
ForEach ($item in $PowerSettings) { Set-ItemProperty -Path ($item).Replace('HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE','HKLM:') -Name 'Attributes' -Value 2 -Force }
@Velocet, small fix:
Set-ItemProperty -Path 'HKLM:\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power' -Name 'CSEnabled' -Value 0 -Force
# Unlock hidden options
$PowerSettings = Get-ChildItem -Path 'HKLM:\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\PowerSettings' -Recurse -Depth 1 | Where-Object { $_.PSChildName -NotLike 'DefaultPowerSchemeValues' -and $_.PSChildName -NotLike '0' -and $_.PSChildName -NotLike '1' }
ForEach ($item in $PowerSettings) { Set-ItemProperty -Path ($item).Name.Replace('HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE','HKLM:') -Name 'Attributes' -Value 2 -Force }
god thank you @Velocet @nick4fake guys!!!
Thanks @Velocet, your script actually works WIN 11 also, your amazing
what would i change to DISABLE all advanced power settings?
Instead of enable all options you can use Power settings GUI editor PowerSettingsExplorer
At least for my solution you don’t enable them: All settings become visible. Thats it.
I also wouldn’t download something from a random mediafire link posted on the internet… 🤨
Sorry, I have updated link to forum thread instead of direct zip
Could someone explain the basics to me? Do you have a video explaining how to install? Or is it just right-clicking and running in PowerShell?
@lucr80 Just copy those lines and paste in a PowerShell.
Since I have used above script in windows powershell, I have lost all advanced power settings and can not get them back (even the ones I had before are gone now). Windows is diplaying "Energyplaninformation not available" now.
I tried to undo my changes by setting most settings back to +ATTRIB_HIDE and only some to -ATTRIB_HIDE - but it did not work.
See screenshot below.
Any idea how to fix this?
