I'll try to provide a more specific set of steps and troubleshooting tips for resolving this issue with power plans in Windows 10.

Steps to Troubleshoot and Fix Power Plan Issues in Windows 10

Here’s a breakdown of things you can check and try to resolve the problem with adding or using power plans.

1. Check if Power Plans Are Missing or Disabled

Sometimes, power plans may seem unavailable or be hidden due to system settings. To check and manage power plans:

Method 1: Using Control Panel

1. Open Control Panel:
   • Press Win + R, type control, and hit Enter.
   • Go to Hardware and Sound > Power Options.
2. You should see the available power plans here. If there’s no plan or if you're unable to change or add new ones:
   • Try Restoring Default Power Plans by clicking on the "Choose or customize a power plan" and then selecting Restore default settings for this plan.

Method 2: Using Command Prompt to Reset Power Plans

Open Command Prompt as an administrator:

• Press Win + X and select Command Prompt (Admin) (or Windows PowerShell (Admin) on some systems).

Run the following command to reset all power plans to their defaults:

bash

Copy code

powercfg -restoredefaultschemes

This will restore all default power plans (Balanced, Power Saver, High Performance).

Method 3: Using Power Settings in Settings App

Go to Settings > System > Power & Sleep.

Scroll down to Related settings and click on Additional power settings. This will open the classic Power Options window.

From here, you should see the power plans, and you can try to switch between them. You can also try Create a power plan in the left menu to add a new one.
