Troubleshooting:

  1. App randomly closes - if you used a prior version and recently downloaded a newer release, you need to delete the config file. I have updated the config file a few times. If you don't delete the old config file it won't have the expected changes I've made. You can find it under users - your username - appdata - local - power_control_app and delete all files and sub folders in there.

  2. Computer crashes when changing TDP - next time you open the software it will alert you it crashed and take you to the settings tab. Adjust the RW Delay value to a high value like 1500 and try it again. This sets the delay reading and writing to the registry. Some devices can handle 200 ms, others are sensitive and need over 1000 ms.

  3. Values don't save when I reopen the program - same thing as 1, delete the config file!

  4. I updated windows and now the program doesn't work - .net 5.0 can be removed when doing some update, redownload and install .net 5.0

  5. I installed .net 5.0 but it keeps asking me to install it - there is more than one version, you downloaded the command line interface version. Download the x64 desktop application version. Link provided above.
