See all your power plans in the system tray and select any of them with just a couple of mouse clicks, by using this lightweight app. #Select power plan #Power plan switcher #Power plan changer #Power plan #Laptop #Switcher
Laptop users running Windows 10 know that it is difficult to switch between multiple power plans, as only two are easily available from the power tray menu.
Power Buddy is a relatively simple application that can provide a solution, as it displays every available power plan in a simple system tray menu. It allows you to create personalized system tray icons for each plan.
If you frequently switch between more than two power plans, you are probably tired of bringing up the Power Options menu whenever you want to select one that isn’t available in the system tray.
With this application, however, they will all be at your disposal at all times. Even plans created after the program is launched will be available for selection immediately.
A very interesting feature offered by this app is the Icon Editor, which allows you to customize the default program icon for each plan. It will be much easier to tell which of them is active without clicking the tray icon.
The editor enables you to change the foreground and background color, and you can also revert to the default icon easily at any time.
Though it is certainly a very simple application, Power Buddy may prove to be invaluable if you use multiple power plans on a daily basis. All of them will be available in the system tray, so you can quickly switch to any of them with a couple of mouse clicks.
The application runs quietly in the system tray, and you don’t need to worry about it using up your battery, as its resource usage is negligible. However, you will have to add it to the startup list manually if you want it to be launched whenever you boot up your PC.
