Hi forum, so i got a problem with my school laptops battery settings.
My laptop has an i7 and a Nvidea GTX 730M, running on Windows 10.
Problem is that when for example watching netflix (ofc. i watch netflix in school) then my videos is lagging and the same on youtube. I fixed this in a minute by turning on "high performance" under battery settings, and it works great. I dont mind having to charge often anyway, as i charge it when possible. The problem is tho that when i unplug my charger, then it switches to balanced mode.
Ofc. i can just switch is to high performance again, but its pretty annoying to do.

Is there a setting to keep the laptop in high performance battery mode, when unplugging or just in general? Thanks for all feedback.
 
Hi,

Please do try these following steps that may help.
- Start by changing to High Performance mode in Power Options.
- Right click on the battery icon on the bottom right hand corner and select Power Options.
- Now from the Power Plans listed select High Performance.
- Do test it again and see if the same problem will persist or not.
- Here's also a guide on how to change Power Management settings in Nvidia as well.
