How to Export/Import power profiles in Windows 7

The built-in Powercfg utility works great in Windows 7 for importing/exporting power profiles. Simply set up a new profile as desired using the “Power Options” Windows Control Panel applet. Once set, use the “Powercfg -L” command to grab the GUID, then use the “Powercfg -Export ” command to create a power profile file. Here is a batch to use via MDT or SCCM to push the profile down:

xcopy "" c:\windows\temp\powercfg\ /heyi
powercfg -import "" 12345678-1234-1234-1234-123456789012
powercfg -setactive 12345678-1234-1234-1234-123456789012
