Windows11 runs slow on batter
My laptop runs Windows 11 very smoothly and fast when plugged in, but it slows down a lot when working on battery. Animations are delayed and files open very slowly.

2022-02-05T21:11:18.427+00:00 Hi! I have similar problem. My laptop runs under intel i7-7500u very smooth from power source. When it switches to battery, the CPU frequency freezes at 400MHz. I tried both Optimal and Maximum Performance profiles but it didn't help. Power troubleshooter didn't find any problem. Any other ways to fix it?
