Windows Power Management
Just a few notes for now…
Power management commands can be run in a background DOS shell, like that provided by the MSP RMM
Remote Background shell feature.
List Windows power plans:
powercfg.exe -list
Activate the High Performance power plan:
powercfg.exe /setactive 8c5e7fda-e8bf-4a96-9a85-a6e23a8c635c
Show Link State Power Management setting:
Be sure to disable Link State Power Management as it can cause RDP session lockups!
powercfg.exe -query 8c5e7fda-e8bf-4a96-9a85-a6e23a8c635c 501a4d13-42af-4429-9fd1-a8218c268e20
Disable hibernation and delete the hiberfil.sys file:
powercfg.exe /hibernate off
Disable various power management settings:
powercfg.exe -change -monitor-timeout-ac 0 powercfg.exe -change -monitor-timeout-dc 0 powercfg.exe -change -disk-timeout-ac 0 powercfg.exe -change -disk-timeout-dc 0 powercfg.exe -change -standby-timeout-ac 0 powercfg.exe -change -standby-timeout-dc 0 powercfg.exe -change -hibernate-timeout-ac 0 powercfg.exe -change -hibernate-timeout-dc 0
