The first screenshot is of the option being there, well what its supposed to be and the other two are of my setup, as you can see i change a setting to see if it would pop up to restore defaults and it just doesnt....

View 3 Repliesso i migrated from windows 7 to windows 10.im running windows 10 pro,64 bit,4gb ram on intel i3 processor.in windows 7 when i click on the battery icon i can choose the power plan setting immediately. but in windows 10,when i click the battery icon the power plan option is no longer there.i had to go through advanced power setting to get to the power plan settings.so i wonder is there any way to get the power plan setting to show directly when i click the battery icon?i knew there was a workaround by editing registry and showing it by right clicking on desktop instead but i prefer the old way.
View 1 RepliesI have been having some really annoying performance problems after upgrading my laptop from win8 to win 10.
My laptop is a asus ux32vd, with an Intel i7-3517U cpu.(normal core speed: 1.7ghz, turbo: 2.4ghz)
CPU-Z is showing ~990mhz constantly, no matter how high load there is on the cpu, and what temperature it is(usually around 50-60C).
I just cant figure out what is going on, and why it keeps throttling. Everything is running really slow, chrome is slow, facebook is tough to scroll through. Tried resetting the power plans to default, that didnt work. sometimes it works for changing power plan, and the restarting, but its not consistent at all. What it could be?
I have noticed this problem come up on my Dell 7537 (Check out my profile for details) when I close the lid to put the computer to sleep, the HDD light turns off, but the fan continues to run, even after several hours. When I open the lid back up, it is just a black screen where I have to hold the power button to do a hard reset. The same thing happens with initiating a shutdown sequence, although that one only does it some of the time.
View 3 RepliesI've just downloaded my Windows 10 upgrade and can't send mail through Outlook 13. On a forum I was told to run the sfc command but when I tried, I was told that I'm not an administrator. Mine is the only account on my PC, so surely I must be.
View 3 RepliesI use a 120gb ssd on W10 build 10547 and always get rid of Windows old files for earlier builds. When I add up all the space used when C drive is opened in a new window, it comes to 31gb. Trouble is that the disk has actually 88.2gb used, confirmed also by Partition wizard. AMD uses 2gb, docs/downloads 9gb, windows 14gb, recovery 5gb, 32/64 programs 1gb, it really should be a slim system.
View 9 RepliesRunning w10 x64 and quite satisfied with it.
I usually do a "synchronize folders" within Total Commander for doing a differential copy of regular applications I download and use.
Anyway, I have found out that TC insists on some files being "different" or "changed" after I have ran them. I have found out w10 "automatically sets" current date and time to the executable file after it has been run. Is this normal? Or is it Windows Defender who does it?
I recently upgraded and now can no longer run my Windows XP on a virtual pc?

And can it be disabled completely ?
It is so hot to touch I now have to run cooling pad under the laptop, the fans just dont stop spinning it is so noisy now....
View 5 RepliesThis is very strange, but for some unknown reason Windows 10 will not let me open some programs (e.g. file explorer, task manager, chrome. But, it will let me open Word, Excel and Edge. When I go to shut it down it just keeps running and running. It is almost like some App has taken over part of the system and won't let go. I have let it run for 4 hours and it never shut down. Obviously I have to disconnect the power cord and do a hard boot to get it back.
View 6 RepliesFor the last couple of days, when automatically running Facebook of of my START apps list, after Facebook opens for a while it just cancels out without any warning. No problems before this. However, if I run Facebook thru the Internet after signing "ON", no problem. I uninstalled the Facebook from START and re-installed it from Windows Store and it installed with no problem. However, when I try to run it automatically from START, the same happens. It runs for a while, and whenever it feels like, it just kicks me out and cancels. As I stated above, this has only been happening the last two days.
View 1 RepliesI had installed windows 10 from betas and i have never reached 80 celsius on my laptop. i am measuring my temperatures with speedfan and also tried with hardwaremonitor but the same readings. my laptop fan is running on very low RPM if it is even running, i searched for programs that can control fan speed but without luck. i dont know whats wrong and i want to fix it ASAP because my laptop life is decreasing because of higher temps. my usage is not even that big. i have only 7 chrome tabs opened.
View 5 RepliesFor some reason, ever since i built my computer back in late 2014, it has been going very slow. Programs take awhile to start up and the initial boot takes about 5-7 minutes. However, all the games I play run very well. I actually overclock both my CPU and GPU with low temps. My specs are as follows:
GPU: AMD Gigabyte R9 270 w/ 2gigs vRAM
CPU: AMD FX 6300 OC'd to 4.0GHz
RAM: 8gigs of 1333MHz DDR3
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-970A-DS3P
PSU: Sentey 725w
Edit: I forgot to mention that the USB 3.0 ports rarely work. This has been a problem ever since I got the mobo. I will probably just call Gigabyte at some point if no is able to figure that out
I've got 8GB RAM and while I was playing XCOM 2 with no other apps running (except for what's running near the clock, AV, Firewall, Steam, etc) and awhile playing windows gave me an error stating that Windows is Low on Memory and it shut down XCOM 2.
View 1 RepliesI upgraded from Win7 to Win10 when 10 was made available. I run 4GB RAM, A core2 6700 2.66 cpu, 64 bit, Comodo Firewall, spyware & antivirus. I did not notice this constant running of the HD using Win 7 with the same software.It seems something is demanding constant harddrive use at or near 100% much of the time. Some of the time there is such a demand the HD seems to be screaming for mercy.
I have checked for viruses, trojans, spyware and disk errors with nothing foundI use both online and offline malware check systems... nothing is ever found. I like the layout of the new Windows but I do not like all the demands it makes on the HD & CPU when I am trying to use it. Task MGR indicates CPU and HD usage is high usually above 30 percent for CPU & above 90% for HD.
I recently installed Windows 10, the FULL VERSION, not the Technical ISO, and ever since then, Battlefield 4 has been running significantly worse on my computer. I don't know if it is just the operating system or what, but I am running a 980 ti with an i5 4670k cpu and I can definitely say that it was smoother on Windows 7. I am playing with everything on ultra settings at 1080p.
View 1 RepliesAgain today, when cleaning cookies and trying to find where the pop-ups came from I traced it to IE.. Well I do not use IE nor do I use Edge which is constantly running. I still love Firefox and Chrome.
I went to Microsoft and there is info on there saying to uninstall it. Did that and still. I am very agravated only because it was hacked somhow, I did manage to remove the culprit but I hate the fact that I do not do anything to get into trouble and IE seems to.
Which running services are ok to disable for improving the performance (or to reduce the RAM memory consumption)?

View 1 RepliesWhen I had Windows 7, I put a shortcut to Control Panel in the startup folder (I used to need it to start at startup). Now I am on Windows 10 and it still starts at startup. I deleted from the folder (looked up where it was) and checked in task manager if it was set to run at startup but it wasn't there.
