How to restore missing Default Power Plans

Post by Executioner »

Don't know if you guys ever ran into this, but I made some minor mods to the balance and performance, and I wanted to restore the default ones back, but the performance one is no longer available. You have to create one from scratch and rename it performance. I found this on the net that restores them including one I did not have before: ultimate performance.

1 Open a command prompt.

2 Copy and paste the command below for the missing power plan you want to restore into the command prompt, and press Enter. (see screenshot below)

(Power saver)
powercfg -duplicatescheme a1841308-3541-4fab-bc81-f71556f20b4a

(Balanced)
powercfg -duplicatescheme 381b4222-f694-41f0-9685-ff5bb260df2e

(High Performance)
powercfg -duplicatescheme 8c5e7fda-e8bf-4a96-9a85-a6e23a8c635c

(Ultimate Performance - Windows 10 build 17101 and later)
powercfg -duplicatescheme e9a42b02-d5df-448d-aa00-03f14749eb61
