How to Switch On or Off Efficiency Mode for App in Windows 11?
In Windows 11, Microsoft added a new feature called efficiency mode, which is very much helpful in restricting the usage of resources by an application. Or you can term it as preventing an application from exploiting the available resources. This will help the system to run smoothly and manage the system more efficiently and increase battery life.
Note: Efficiency mode can be applied only to a single application and not to a whole bunch of applications or to the entire PC.
Disclaimer: This feature may not appear on your system as Microsoft is testing the feature so it isn’t available to all the users, as Microsoft plans to monitor feedback and make changes.
