How to change to high performance power plan if it's missing from the power options?

[skourby]

I need to change my power plan in order to improve connection with an audio interface. Every method that I've found online so far, such as creating a new power plan option, going into the registry and changing something called CsEnabled (which no longer exists), using the command prompt, and a others. A similar question said I had to disable Connected Standby, but I'm not sure how to do that.

@skourby Welcome to HP Community!

I understand that you would like to change the power plan.

What is the product number of your computer? (Ensure you don't share any personal information such as serial, phone number, email ID, etc..). 

Please refer to the below link to change the power plan.

The steps in the article do not work. When I open the power options or try to create a plan, the only setting there is "balanced". When I try to adjust the power plan by going into advanced settings, I am only able to change a few functions instead of all the ones listed.

My product number is 8ST12AV

I understand your concerns.

In that case, I would suggets you perform the system reset.

Windows 10 has a reset feature that repairs your computer by reinstalling the operating system. This feature is recommended for recovery because it reinstalls Windows 10 while either preserving your personal data and customizations or removing all your personal data.

You have a choice of two methods to reset your computer.

• If Windows 10 loads correctly, see the section titled Perform a Windows 10 system reset in Windows in this document.

• If Windows 10 does not start correctly, see the section titled Perform a Windows 10 system reset through Windows Recovery Environment in this document.

Have a nice day!!

I have already contacted two support agents using the method described. Neither of them were able to help.

I understand your concern and I have brought your issue to the attention of an appropriate team within HP.

They will likely request information from you in order to look up your case details or product serial number.

Please look for a private message from an identified HP contact.

Additionally, keep in mind not to publicly post personal information (serial numbers and case details).

If you are unfamiliar with how the Community's private message capability works, you can learn about that here.
