Restore Windows Power Options: 'Only Balanced Power Plan Available' on Windows 11/10 [SOLVED]

Computers with Windows Operating Systems have different power plans. These power plans help conserve power. Users can select a power plan as per their requirements. In addition to these predefined power plans, Windows also allows users to create custom power plans as per their requirements. All these power plans are available in the Control Panel. What if you open the Control Panel to switch to another power plan but find that only Balanced Power Plan is available? Some users experienced this issue. This video lists effective solutions to resolve this problem.

It worked thank you😀🙏😊 I'm running a laptop with an RTX 3080ti and my GTA V started badly stuttering out of nowhere. This fixed it when nothing else did. To be clear only the 'balanced' option was available, probably because of some update. This made my games run poorly. After following the steps here I got all of my power options back. I set for ultimate performance and now my GTA V runs perfectly. Thank you 🙂
