PowerPlanSwitcher

Configure visibility, icon and global hotkey for your Windows power plans in the settings dialog.

Switch your power plan easily and quickly by clicking the tray-icon.

Or let PowerPlanSwitcher automatically switch between power plans depending on what you do.

Using rules to automatically switch power plans

Create a list of rules that determine which power plan should be active. Rules will be triggered by various events but only the first rule in the list with a trigger of 1 or higher, determines the power plan.

Create rules that switch Windows power plans based on:

• ProcessRule: Processes being created or terminated

• PowerLineRule: Plugging or unplugging your laptop from power

• IdleRule: No user input happening for a configurable amount of time

• StartupRule: PowerPlanSwitcher being started

• ShutdownRule: Windows initiating a shutdown

Furher settings allow you to:

• Configure a global hotkey to cycle through your power plans.
• Set your prefered color theme.
• Specify the display of notifications when a power plan is switched by a rule or a hotkey press.
• Activate extended logging.
