Configuring advanced power settings

As mentioned earlier, Windows Settings in Windows 10, mainly through Power & sleep, enables you to set screen and power settings. However, if you want to configure advanced settings, such as the following, then you should use the old Control Panel:

• Choose what the power button does
• Choose what closing the lid does
• Create a power plan
• Choose when to turn off the display
• Change when the computer sleeps

 With that in mind, to access Power Options in Windows 10, complete the following steps:

1. Click the Start button.
2. With the Start menu open, select Settings.
3. Select System from the Windows Settings window.
4. Select Power & sleep on the System setting's navigation menu.
5. From within Power & sleep, locate Additional power settings (see the following screenshot) on the right side of the screen:
