I would like to lower my cpu power (at 50%),

For doing this I executed the following command:

powercfg -setacvalueindex SCHEME_BALANCED SUB_PROCESSOR PROCTHROTTLEMAX 50

powercfg.exe -setactive SCHEME_CURRENT

It's okay, but unfortunately only for a short time, after about 30 minutes, it back to 100%

How could I make this change persistent?


Edit : The "manual" harrymc's way is just another way to do the same, so my problem is still here. (the edited configuration is not persistent and backs to 100% alone for an unknow reason)

Maybe there is another way to limit the power allocate for the software ?
I already set affinity to only one core but software fails to work properly like this (only one core was working at 100%).
And I would like ALL core working at 50%.

This setting should stick :

  • Run Start > Power Options > Change advanced power settings
  • Scroll down and open the branch "Processor power management"
  • Click "Maximum processor state" and set it to 50
  • Click OK.

To test, reboot and verify that the value has not changed.
