As vague as your question has been, I suggest you be more specific.
The meaning of default settings is that. The setings are returned to their original factory parameters.

I know this is old but I cannot let it go AND it hasn't been answered.
One word would make the request quite a bit clearer instead of this circular questioning problem for oOJuliaOo.
Application
Here is oOJuliaOo's response again BUT with the added word.
thank you, i am asking about the settings which the application "hp system default settings for windows 10" sets.
This is part of the HP 'Value Added software" that HP pre-installs on computers. From searching online, this application resets the power settings in the registry. I did not find this on the HP website although I did not perform an exhaustive search so take that information with a grain of salt. If this is accurate, perhaps HP should rename the installed application.
Based on the above information, it can also probably be uninstalled without affecting normal/everyday operation of the computer.
The problem with finding information about this on the web is that the application name is also be a very popular search phrase for a computer's system settings.
I hope this helps someone...in some way.
