After spending months trying to fix all of the bugs in version 24, Microsoft’s developers are now focusing on the next upgrade to Windows 11. Version 25H2 is said to include a new feature that will extend the battery life of laptops. Windows Latestreports that the new feature, which is at the operating-system level, is called “User Interaction Aware CPU Power Management”. The idea is to limit CPU usage when your PC is not in use. This was first mentioned in this Windows blog regarding changes introduced to Windows 11 Insiders.
Inactivity can be deduced from the lack of mouse, touch, or keyboard interaction. Windows could switch back to its normal CPU usage when you return to your computer and resume using the mouse, keyboard or touch.
This isn’t all that Microsoft has planned. Microsoft has been working to create AI-driven system settings management, a new Advanced Settings Page with additional tweaks, as well as AI-generated PC Hardware Advice.
