- DCreating an automated background task to run a disk cleanup utility whenever battery capacity drops below a specific percentage
Answer
The settings directly configurable in the Power Options applet are defining the action taken upon closing the laptop lid and setting the timer for turning off the display after period of inactivity.
The Power Options Control Panel utility controls energy management parameters on Windows devices. Setting what happens when a portable computer's lid is closed (Sleep, Hibernate, Shut down, or Do nothing) and defining the inactive period before turning off the display are standard configurable settings within Power Options power plans.
