Windows 10 Home to go on High Performance when an application is on. Topic is solved

[TOTAL]

My laptop gets hot at high performance and only one application needs anything more than Best Battery Life setting. Is it possible to have ahk change the performance setting each time the app is on - whether in the foreground or background?

Code: Select all

#if (WinActive("ahk_class AbletonVstPlugClass") or WinActive("ahk_class Ableton Live Window Class") or WinActive("ahk_class Ableton Live 10 Suite.exe")) 
{...

Instead of an #If directive, which works only with hotkeys & hotstrings, you could use a running Loop with WinWait followed by a Windows powercfg command.

OK, I think I will figure out the rest, thanks a lot.

Turns out I have just one power plan on this windows home. I can create copies and change the critical settings. Better, does AHK enable doing the equivalent of dragging the horizontal fader in battery menu: better battery - better performance - best performance?
