How do you turn off efficiency mode for Edge in windows 11?

I have noticed my edge is really laggy now. Sometimes I open a new tab and it's just stuck loading forever. But if I close it and try and so the same thing but in a current tab it works fine. I noticed the efficiency mode symbol in task manager but I can't turn it off. When I click on it all the efficiency mode options are greyed out. How do I turn it off?

Efficiency mode causing performance issue

Hi, Shayne Hildebrand

Welcome to the Microsoft Community.



Efficiency mode, previously known as Eco mode, in Windows 11 is designed to limit the resources an application can use to help improve energy efficiency and reduce the system's overall resource usage. However, for resource-intensive applications like AutoCAD Civil 3D, this mode can indeed cause performance issues.

Here are some steps you can take to manage Efficiency mode for your applications:

1. Power Plan Settings:
   
   • Go to 'Settings' > 'System' > 'Power & battery'.
     
   • Under 'Power mode', make sure it's set to 'Best performance'.
     
2. Graphics Settings:
   
   • Go to 'Settings' > 'System' > 'Display' > 'Graphics'.
     
   • Browse for the AutoCAD Civil 3D executable or add it if it's not listed.
     
   • Once added, click on the application and choose 'Options'.
     
   • Set the graphics preference to 'High performance'.
     
3. Registry Edit (Advanced, proceed with caution):
   
   • Press Win + R, type regedit, and press Enter to open the Registry Editor.
     
   • Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\PowerThrottling.
     
   • Here, you can create or modify a DWORD value named PowerThrottlingOff and set it to 1 to disable power throttling globally. This is not recommended as it affects the entire system and can lead to higher power consumption and heat generation.
     
     Disclaimer: Generally, modifying registry subkeys or work group is intended for advanced users, administrators, and IT Professionals. It can help fix some problems, however, serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you follow these steps carefully. For further protection, back up the registry before you modify it. Then, you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to back up and restore the registry, click How to back up and restore the registry in Windows - Microsoft Support to view the article.
     

Please note that changing system priorities and registry settings can have unintended consequences, so these actions should be taken with caution and ideally not on a machine critical for work without proper backups and understanding of the steps involved.



If there is anything not clear or I can't understand your problem, please do not hesitate to let me know.
