Dell Power Manager Service (DPM)

DPM is a Dell-developed application providing simplified and efficient power management capabilities for Dell computers. Dell Power Manager is an application that allows you to maximize the battery life of the system. Configure how the battery should be maintained based on your personal preferences. It also supports alert notifications that are related to power adapter, battery, docking, and USB Type-C device/protocol incompatibility. The key features are as follows:
  • Battery information: Display battery health information, adjust battery settings or create a custom-battery setting.
  • Advanced charge mode: Control battery charging to prolong battery life.
  • Peak Shift : Reduce power consumption by automatically switching the computer to battery power. DPM does it during certain times of the day, even when the computer is plugged into a direct power source.
  • Thermal Management: Control processor and cooling fan settings to manage performance, system surface temperature, and fan noise.
  • Battery Extender: Conserve battery charge by affecting CPU power level, screen brightness and keyboard illumination levels, and by muting audio.
  • Alerts Management: Enable or disable adapter, battery, docking station, thermal, and other types of alerts.
  • Group Policies: Apply default settings and/or prevent users from changing power alerts system events, power management, thermal management, battery extender, and battery settings.
  • Product Feedback: Provide feedback on the software.
