How to disable efficiency mode in task manager? Windows efficiency mode is making apps like Google Chrome unusable.

I'm having this same issue!!

I'm on a desktop as well so I have no reason to have an efficiency mode, unless that efficiency mode was only active while I was tabbed out.

My running theory for why this is happening and why its only happening to chrome is because microsoft is trying to turn people away from chrome and towards edge. Which is really not a very good look for the company.

I don't know why we aren't able to just turn off efficiency mode on the main google chrome box in task manager instead of having to turn it off on every sub-process.

Ridiculous.

There better be a fix for this soon because this is unacceptable.

As mentioned, i've tried this. It doesn't work for the entire application (see picture) since only a few subprocesses are being run in efficiency mode.

And when I do this for those sub-processes, it will revert back to efficiency mode within a few minutes.

it's insane how they shame us over power and efficiency mode.. etc etc
WHILE win11 has dozens of processes and telemetry running multiple times a minute sending data to MS.

@ MICROSOFT : LET US TURN THIS **** OFF. STOP SHAMING US OVER POWER WHEN YOU USE OUR SYSTEMS TO BENEFIT YOUR BUSINESS AND YOU RUN DOZENS OF PROCESSES WE DON'T F_CKING NEED!
EXAMPLE: WHY IS OFFICE CLICK TO RUN STILL A THING ? It's not 2008. YUO WASTE MORE POWER FORCING THAT **** TO RUN WHEN NOT ONE PERSON NEEDS IT!
