Power Options Some Settings Are Managed By Your System Administrator

Sometime the power configuration options are disabled even after logon with administrative privileges in windows computer. There is a message show "Some settings are managed by your system administrator."

Power settings in a computer are usually controlled in two ways. One of them is through the "Group Policy" of that computer and another is through the "Registry" of that computer.

If any of these two locations are enabled with any power configuration, then no work can be done related power issue on that computer. So all power related configurations should be removed or disabled from these two locations.

First of all we will disable power related configuration from "Group Policy".

Open "Run" option and type the following command to open "Group Policy" editor.


                                                           gpedit.msc

Now select "Computer Configuration". Then select "Administrative Templates". Now "System" and now "Power Management". Check here to see, if any settings are configured. If it configured, then it have to "Disabled" or "Not Configured". Just the following way:-

You will get the following interface after double click the "Power Management"

Now check to see if any rules are configured. If it then just double click of that configured rules and select "Disable or Not Configured". Just like follwoing:- 

Now click "apply" and then "OK". We are done. We have finished all the work in the "Group Policy". Now we will work in the "Registry". 

To open the "Registry" editor run the following command on the "RUN" option. To open "RUN" press "windows key + r" from the keyboard. Now type the following command and press "Enter".

                                           
                                             regedit

In "Registry" editor, go to the following path:-

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE  ->  SOFTWARE  ->  Policies  ->  Microsoft  ->  Power  ->  PowerSettings

Now check on right side, if there is a registry key called "ActivePowerScheme". If available simply delete this key and restart your computer.

Hope you can now work with power settings.
