This section will cover two categories of settings:
By default Quick CPU application is not making any changes to the system it’s running on, and only performs system monitoring. All the changes to any of the settings from the categories above are done by the user via Quick CPU interface.
However, there may be a situation where an end user has made one or more changes to the system settings and is unhappy with the result or simply wants to revert everything back to how it was. In this case there are few simple steps that you can follow to revert all the settings from the previously mentioned categories back to their original state (system default), or to the state they were before change was applied.
The way that settings will be reverted will depend on two main factors:
In the sections below I’ll explain the process for both categories.
If you are planning to make any changes to the system Power settings, it is always a good idea to make a backup copy of your current settings, in case you will decide later to restore them.
The process of making a backup copy for a specific power plan is fairly simple:
Next I’m going to explain how to restore/reset power settings from a backup file, or to system default.
Restoring Power settings to system default:
Restoring Power settings from a backup file:
The process of restoring Advanced CPU Settings (ACS) is slightly different but very simple as well.
In general Advanced CPU Settings (ACS) are getting reset back to the system default by the system BIOS every time you turn your computer OFF and back ON, (for some systems restart is enough but not for all).
All you need to do in this case, is to ensure that none of your Custom profile/s (if you have any), are set to be applied on application start. After that you have to turn your computer OFF and then back ON. This will reset all the ACS settings back to their default values.
Normally, before modifying any ACS settings, at the very beginning (when they are still set to system default), it is a good idea to create a Default custom profile. This profile will store all of your default settings. This way, if you happen to make any changes to one or more ACS settings, but have decided later on to reset everything back to system default, you can simply Apply your Default profile, without needing to turn the computer OFF and back ON (see the image below).
Every ASC group has a monitor that can be turned ON or OFF. If the monitor is ON the application will monitor and enforce ASC settings that you have applied last.
