Today’s Quick Tip….
Is your Windows PC’s “power plan” set to Power Saver?
If so, you can give your machine some extra “get-up-and-go” by switching to the High Performance plan.
Power Saver mode can really come in handy if you’re using a laptop and you need to make each battery charge last as long as possible.
However, if you keep your laptop plugged into a wall outlet you can speed things up a bit by switching from Power Saver to High Performance.
And truth be told, if you have a desktop PC there’s really no need to use the Power Saver plan at all unless you simply want your PC to use as little electricity as possible.
Sound good? Give it a try, then reply to this email and let me know how it works out for you.
