# Battery drains too fast.
|
||||
When your battery on the laptop drains too fast, please perform these steps and report the results back to the Winutil community.
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Check Battery Health:**
|
||||
- Open a Command Prompt as an administrator.
|
||||
- Run the following command to generate a battery report:
|
||||
```powershell
|
||||
powercfg /batteryreport /output "C:\battery_report.html"
|
||||
```
|
||||
- Open the generated HTML report to review information about battery health and usage.
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Review Power Settings:**
|
||||
- Go to "Settings" > "System" > "Power & sleep."
|
||||
- Adjust power plan settings based on your preferences and usage patterns.
|
||||
- Click on "Additional power settings" to access advanced power settings.
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Identify Power-Hungry Apps:**
|
||||
- Right-click on the taskbar and select "Task Manager."
|
||||
- Navigate to the "Processes" tab to identify applications with high CPU or memory usage.
|
||||
- Consider closing unnecessary background applications.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
7. **Battery Saver Mode:**
|
||||
- Go to "Settings" > "System" > "Battery."
|
||||
- Turn on "Battery saver" to limit background activity and conserve power.
|
||||
|
||||
8. **Check Power Usage in Settings:**
|
||||
- Go to "Settings" > "System" > "Battery" > "Battery usage by app."
|
||||
- Review the list of apps and their power usage.
|
||||
|
||||
9. **Check Background Apps:**
|
||||
- Go to "Settings" > "Privacy" > "Background apps."

||||
- Disable unnecessary apps running in the background.
|
||||
|
||||
10. **Use Powercfg for Analysis:**
|
||||
- Open a Command Prompt as an administrator.
|
||||
- Run the following command to analyze energy usage and generate a report:
|
||||
```powershell
|
||||
powercfg /energy /output "C:\energy_report.html"
|
||||
```
|
||||
- Open the generated HTML report to identify energy consumption patterns.
|
||||
|
||||
11. **Review Event Viewer:**
|
||||
- Open Event Viewer by searching for it in the Start menu.
|
||||
- Navigate to "Windows Logs" > "System."
|
||||
- Look for events with the source "Power-Troubleshooter" to identify power-related events.
|
||||
|
||||
12. **Check Wake-up Sources:**
|
||||
- Open a Command Prompt as an administrator.
|
||||
- Use the command `powercfg /requests` to identify processes preventing sleep.

||||
- In "Settings," go to "Privacy" > "Activity history."
|
||||
- Turn off "Let Windows collect my activities from this PC."
|
||||
|
||||
15. **Network Adapters:**
|
||||
- Open Device Manager by searching for it in the Start menu.
|
||||
- Locate your network adapter, right-click, and go to "Properties."
|
||||
- Under the "Power Management" tab, uncheck the option that allows the device to wake the computer.
|
||||
|
||||
16. **Review Installed Applications:**
|
||||
- Manually review installed applications by searching for "Add or remove programs" in the Start menu.
|
||||
- Check settings/preferences of individual applications for power-related options.

# Troubleshoot errors during Microwin usage
|
||||
|
||||
## Error `0x80041031`
|
||||
|
||||
This error code typically indicates an issue related to Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI). Here are a few steps you can try to resolve the issue:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Reboot Your Computer:**
|
||||
Sometimes, a simple reboot can resolve temporary issues. Restart your computer and try mounting the ISO again.
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Check for System Corruption:**
|
||||
Run the System File Checker (SFC) utility to scan and repair system files that may be corrupted.
|
||||
```powershell
|
||||
sfc /scannow
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Update Your System:**
|
||||
Make sure your operating system is up-to-date. Check for Windows updates and install any pending updates.
|
||||
|
||||
4. **Check WMI Service:**
|
||||
Ensure that the Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) service is running. You can do this through the Services application:
|
||||
- Press `Win + R` to open the Run dialog.
|
||||
- Type `services.msc` and press Enter.
|
||||
- Locate "Windows Management Instrumentation" in the list.
|
||||
- Make sure to set its status to "Running" and the startup type to "Automatic."
|
||||
|
||||
5. **Check for Security Software Interference:**
|
||||
Security software can sometimes interfere with WMI operations. Temporarily disable your antivirus or security software and check if the issue persists.
|
||||
|
||||
6. **Event Viewer:**
|
||||
Check the Event Viewer for more detailed error information. Look for entries related to the `80041031` error and check if there are any additional details that can help identify the cause.
|
||||
|
||||
- Press `Win + X` and select "Event Viewer."
|
||||
- Navigate to "Windows Logs" -> "Application" or "System."
|
||||
- Look for entries with the source related to WMI or the application use to mount the ISO.
|
||||
|
||||
7. **ISO File Integrity:**
|
||||
Ensure that the ISO file you are trying to mount is uncorrupted. Try mounting a different ISO file to see if the issue persists.
|
||||
|
||||
If the problem persists after trying these steps, additional troubleshooting is required. Consider seeking assistance from Microsoft support or community forums for more specific guidance based on your system configuration and the software you use to mount the ISO.
