Effective Ways to Reduce Battery Drain on Windows 11

1. Lowering screen brightness can significantly reduce battery consumption on Windows 11.

Lowering the screen brightness to an appropriate level will help reduce the rapid battery drain of your computer. Moreover, keeping the screen brightness high also adversely affects your eyes.

Adjusting the screen brightness is quite simple. Just click on the Speaker/Battery/Wi-Fi icon. Then a dialog box appears, and you can adjust the screen brightness on the toolbar.

2. Enable battery saving mode on your computer or laptop.

The battery saving mode on Windows 11 usually automatically turns on when the battery drops to 20%. However, you can completely change this ratio to extend the battery life. The steps are as follows:

Step 1: Open Settings or press Windows + I to open > select System

Step 2: Choose Power & battery > click on Battery saver and select the battery level at which you want to automatically enable battery saver mode

3. Customize power usage mode

You can also change the power usage mode to minimize battery drain when using Windows 11 computers or laptops while still achieving effective usage. The steps are as follows:

Step 1: Open Settings or press Windows + I to open > select System (Display)

Step 2: Choose Power & battery > click on Power mode > select Best performance energy efficiency

4. Set Graphics for Applications

Some applications with excessive graphics usage are also the cause of rapid battery drain on Windows 11. To improve this situation, follow these instructions:

Step 2: Proceed to the application you want to adjust graphics > select Options. At this point, a customization dialog box appears and select Power-saving mode > press Save

5. Turn off Background Running Applications

Opening multiple background running applications simultaneously also contributes to rapid battery drain on your laptop, which you may not pay attention to. To check these applications, follow these steps:

• Bước 1: Mở Cài đặt > chọn tiếp mục Hệ thống > chọn Nguồn và pin
