Use Task Manager to Find What Processes and Apps Are Using the Most Power Consumption
By Timothy Tibbetts |
The Windows 10 Task Manager has added options to view Power usage and Power usage trends. You can use this feature to find out what apps have the most impact on power consumption.
Power usage looks at the impact of power usage on your processor (CPU), graphics (GPU), and hard drive (HDD) resources.
One problem is many people are unaware of this option. While it's right there, you won't see it unless you maximize Task Manager or slide the arrow.
Video tutorial:
Press the Windows Key + X click on Task Manager.
Slide or maximize the Task Manager Window now.
On the far right, you will find two rows - Power usage and Power usage trends.
Power usage shows live statistics while Power usage trends shows power usage from the past two minutes.
