Is there a way to add/unlock via regedit the "Do nothing" option when battery reached the critical level while charger not plugged?

    Thank you very much for reaching out! As an Independent Advisor and fellow Microsoft user, I'm more than happy to assist you.

    Based on the following article: Add or Remove Critical battery action from Power Options in Windows | Tutorials (tenforums.com)

    1. Open the Registry Editor by pressing the Windows key + R, typing "regedit," and pressing Enter.
    2. Navigate to the following key:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\PowerSettings\e73a048d-bf27-4f12-9731-8b2076e8891f\637ea02f-bbcb-4015-8e2c-a1c7b9c0b546 3. Create a new DWORD value named "Attributes" and set its value to 2. This will add the "Critical battery action" option for the critical battery level.

    Let me know if this helps.

    Are you trying to unlock the "Do Nothing" option? Is other methods not working for you? Can you please send a screenshot of it?

    The option, the "event" exist. But there is no "Do nothing" switch for the "On battery" setting.
