Enable Ultimate Performance Power Plan in Windows 10


Existing Power Schemes (* Active)
-----------------------------------
Power Scheme GUID: 381b4222-f694-41f0-9685-ff5bb260df2e  (Balanced)
Power Scheme GUID: 8c5e7fda-e8bf-4a96-9a85-a6e23a8c635c  (High performance)
Power Scheme GUID: a1841308-3541-4fab-bc81-f71556f20b4a  (Power saver)
Power Scheme GUID: e9a42b02-d5df-448d-aa00-03f14749eb61  (Ultimate Performance) *


On Windows 10 Pro, I checked to see if that power scheme GUID existed and it does, but when I tried to set it, it said not supported.  I then tried to duplicate it and that worked. I was then able to set the duplicated GUID as current, so accomplished the same result.  It even named it Ultimate Performance automatically.


powercfg /DUPLICATESCHEME e9a42b02-d5df-448d-aa00-03f14749eb61

powercfg /S e9a42b02-d5df-448d-aa00-03f14749eb61


Power Scheme GUID: 2c4507ff-2e15-4ba3-a953-a393807c6a3e  (Ultimate Performance)

C:\>powercfg /S 2c4507ff-2e15-4ba3-a953-a393807c6a3e






Windows 10 Power Plans Comparison

Here’s a comparison between Balanced Vs. Power saver Vs. High-Performance Vs. Ultimate Performance power schemes (for desktop computers.)

As you can see, the High performance and Ultimate performance power schemes are almost the same, with the exception of the “turn off hard disks” setting. For most desktop users, Balanced is the recommended power setting.

Extracting and using a modified VMWare Player BIOS or UEFI firmware

-
https://pete.akeo.ie/2011/06/extracting-and-using-modified-vmware.html Extracting and using a modified VMWare Player BIOS or UEFI firmware (updated 2016.05.17 for VMWare UEFI firmware extraction) One day or another, you may want to play with BIOS/UEFI firmware modification. But before jumping into physical motherboard flash alteration, where the consequences of a mishap can be difficult to salvage, experimenting with the BIOS/UEFI in a virtual environment sounds like a sound first step. You have of course the opportunity to do so using  bochs , however the ubiquitous nature and ease of use of the (freely available)  VMware Player  can turn the latter in a much better candidate for the job if you don't really care about the extra features that bochs brings in. This post details how one can extract the BIOS/UEFI firmwares used by the VMWare Player, and how to setup the player to use a modified one. Download and install VMware Player. The current version of VMwar...

Windows 11 internet/account bypass

https://github.com/the-P1neapple/WinJS-Microsoft-Account-Bypass WinJS-Microsoft-Account-Bypass Overview This guide explains a method to bypass the Microsoft Account (MSA) requirement during the Windows 11 Out-Of-Box Experience (OOBE) by using the Developer Console to invoke a hidden local account setup screen. This method was discovered by examining the Windows 11 OOBE source code, which revealed an event listener for a hidden  _localAccountButton . Note A faster method has since been discovered using Command Prompt ( Source ), this repo was made 7 months prior to that discovery. The method I have documented is still the only known method for S-Mode installations. Following these steps, you can create a local account without needing to sign in with or create a Microsoft account. I also have a  Youtube Tutorial  that follows the same instructions below Steps to Bypass Microsoft Account Setup 1. Start Windows 11 Setup Begin the Windows 11 Setup Process. Select your region a...
