Battery usage in Win 11
-
I installed Windows 11 about 15 days back, and I notice that the battery usage in Win 11 is more draining than that in Win 10. I have set "Battery Saver" on; even then the battery drains out faster than it did in Win 10. For the same kind of work. Have any of you noticed this, and is there any remedy, suggestion? (Other than reverting to Win 10 :-))

It's a more bloated OS with 70% more spyware as OEM, what did you expect?

Seems about the same on my Surface.

Yes, it's fine - my second Surface after my Pro 3. Not as fast as my desktop, but I never expected it would be.

I've had a bad experience with mine. We all did - the company issued about 200 SPs all died in a span of a few months after about 2 years of service. My personal unit also give up after 3 years. Didn't "explode" like the company one but is barely usable (no touch screen and cooling anymore). Also, the screen size is unusable for development (at least for me) and it's getting hot and noisy really fast. And the sucker is expensive. For this kind of money, you could get Dell XPS.

I'd check task master to see what's busy ... that's why I removed Chrome ... too "busy" when I didn't even have a browser open. I question anything that "runs" when I'm not using it (and may "end task" it, or remove it completely). Know your running tasks.

All genuine, the battery from the corner shop and Windows 11 CDs from another corner shop 😮🤔.

Thanks. It was Skype which was running. Ended the Skype task, and things are better now. Thanks once again.
