Balanced Power Plan is active by default in windows 11.
To view and verify in PowerShell, Run the following command in the PowerShell.
powercfg /list
The Output should look like this.
If your output looks somewhat like this:
Then it means you are already using one of the Armory crate Profile's Power Plan.
Try switching between the Profiles of Armory crate and see which plan is active in the respective profile.
In my system The Silent Profile is bound to use 64a64f24-65b9-4b56-befd-5ec1eaced9b3 power plan
Performance and Turbo Profiles uses the same Power Plan which is 6fecc5ae-f350-48a5-b669-b472cb895ccf
You should note down the power plan GUID of the Profile which you want to edit because we will delete it later in the demonstration.
For example: If I want to edit the Turbo Profile Power plan, I will note down the GUID 6fecc5ae-f350-48a5-b669-b472cb895ccf
Steps to Assign custom power plan to Armory Crate Profile.
Now I will demonstrate how to assign custom power plan to Turbo profile of Armory Crate
Step 1: Find the GUID of the power plan you want to assign.
You can find the GUID of the power plans in Registry Editor in the following location.
Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\User\PowerSchemes
Each folder Within the PoweSchemes has the GUID of a Power Plan
To know which power plan, Select the folder and check its FriendlyName.
Copy the power plan GUID. Here I am choosing High Performance Power plan 8c5e7fda-e8bf-4a96-9a85-a6e23a8c635c
Step 2: Set the Balanced Power Plan as Active
powercfg /setactive 381b4222-f694-41f0-9685-ff5bb260df2e
Step 3: Delete all power plans except the balanced power plan using the following command.
Before you delete you should note down the GUID of Turbo Profile's power plan somewhere in the notepad, which is in my case 6fecc5ae-f350-48a5-b669-b472cb895ccf
powercfg delete 6fecc5ae-f350-48a5-b669-b472cb895ccf
Step 4: Finally you can assign your desired power plan to the Armory Crate's profile using the following command
powercfg /duplicatescheme 8c5e7fda-e8bf-4a96-9a85-a6e23a8c635c 6fecc5ae-f350-48a5-b669-b472cb895ccf
It will also make it appear in the Windows Power Options as follows:
Step 5 (Optional): You can set the name for the power plan so that you can know which profile is active.
powercfg /changename 6fecc5ae-f350-48a5-b669-b472cb895ccf Turbo "Armory Crate Turbo Mode"
You can follow steps 1-5 to configure Silent Profile as well.
