Currently, Windows 10's File History refuses to use an internal drive as the backup drive for whatever reason Microsoft may have. It can only use an external hard disk or a network drive for backup. I like File History as it can backup multiple versions of files which protects me from accidental deletions and overwriting of files. For that reason, I don't want to always carry my external backup hard disk with me just in case I need to restore some files. If the backup is already in my internal hard disk, I could always restore my backup versions easily.

How to enable Windows 10 battery saver mode always on

This mode by default it only turns on whenever your battery level is less than 20% or you manually enable it after you have disconnected your power supply. To enable the Battery Saver mode to always on whenever the laptop is running on battery power, this is what you can do.
