Introduction:

Do you have a laptop that runs on battery in Windows 7 and you would like to save energy! This is a trick that allows you to save energy by reducing for example the speed of the hard disk or by stopping some services that consumes a lot of energy. So this is an energy-saving mode that can be activated in Windows 8 and Windows 7 and that can be enabled via the control panel.

To set up a custom start-up screen for Windows 7, you need to go through two steps.
First, you need to make a registry change that allows you to customize backgrounds, and then you need to save the image you prefer in a specific Windows folder.

Steps to follow to activate the Power saving mode:

Here's how to activate the Energy Saving mode:
1. First, you must go to Control Panel by clicking on the Windows flag and clicking on Control Panel

2. Go to System and Security.

3. Click Power Options.

You will see that you are in  "Normal use"

4. Click Power Save to activate the mode.

5. You can change the settings by clicking on "Change mode settings". As a result, you can set the time before turning off the screen or putting the computer to sleep.

Another interesting thing is that you can also customize the power management mode.

6. To do this, click Change Advanced Power Settings.

7. Select and set up what Windows should shut down or not. Ex: hard drive, wireless cards, display

8. You can then restore the default configuration by clicking "Restore Defaults".

9. If you switch to mains, you can select "Normal use".

And that was all for this tip. Stay connected for a new tutorial.
