More than two power schemes?

Hey i just wanted to know any way to increase the number of options for selecting power schemes in the system tray power icon(battery). Currently there are 2
(in my case 1.Power Saver 2.Balanced)
Can i add another one here itself(ex: 3.High Performance)? coz opening the power customization windows every time is cubersome (though it allows to select any of the schemes thereafter)

<Remember Vista ? we had these 3 options by default powersaver,balanced and highperformance when we clicked the system tray icon
maybe a registry edit could do the trick but i dunno much>

thankx for any help

+1 for your question.
I've only known batch line operation exists. (plus custom hotkey maybe)

After research, I come up with FlyoutAutoPowerScheme. But don't know how to implement it.
FlyoutAutoPowerScheme

(ref: See all 3 power plans on system tray - Microsoft Answers)

Software such as "Power Plan Assistant", "Power Scheme Switcher", "SchemeHK", "Total Power Control" can also perform the job.

This is a very good question. I registered here only to ask this question and after quick search, it seems like I'm not the only one wanting this.

My laptop has 6 schemes in total (I have Czech language windows, so sorry for rough translation)

Code:

Power saving scheme
Balance
High performance
+
Ecological (I suspect that Toshiba drivers put this one here)

I also created two more
Power saving STEALTH (lowest performance, as less fan speed as possible)
& Gaming MAX (everything high, including fan)

So, when I click on battery icon in systray, I have just two there. For more of them, I have to click on "more" and then wait a second or two before this window loads, then select what I want and then close the window.



Seems like too much unnecessary steps to me. So if anyone knows how to do it, I'm all for it.

Going to search registry for some values about it.

You're welcome Marty. I hope it works out for you.

Your other question is going to involve BIOS settings and possibly a 3rd party or OEM program to monitor and adjust fan speeds. This should be posted in a new thread since it's not going to be related to Power Plan Scheme, so I moved that question to the link below so that you can get better help with it.

I cannot find a right scheme to fit my needs

OK, I suppose it's part of my learning curve, these little distinctions between forum boards all over the internet, their policies, culture etc.

So on topic - I've tried PowerSwitch app and so far, it's going well. The only problem is that I seem to be unable to choose "AUTO" selection. It's gray and cannot be selected, while schemes can.
