Battery life information
FEBRUARY
You can change your battery life settings in a few different ways in Windows 10. Use the info below to help you do so (if you need to). It is a good habit to hook up to a charger any time you can.
OPTION 1 - The battery icon on your task bar.
​
1. Right click on your battery on your task bar and click 'Power options'.
​
​
​
​
​
​
​
2. Click 'change plan settings' to adjust your settings yourself.
​
​
​
​
​
​
​
​
​
​
3. Click 'advanced power settings' if all your options are not covered on this screen.

​
4. By pressing the + button you can make a few changes here. One function that was requested was to receive notifications when the batter is low. If you scroll to the bottom of the list and click on 'battery' and then 'low battery notification', this is where you make changes.
