Windows 10 upgrade on Inspiron 17 R SE 7720 - battery life decreased

Recently I upgraded my Inspiron 17 R SE (7720) from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10, by doing a clean install of Windows 10.

Everything is working smooth, except one thing; I noticed battery life is more than one hour less, compared to the situation still working with Windows 8.1

Windows 10 drivers, are the ones installed by Windows, when doing the clean install.

Are you familiar with this problem, and if so, is there something I can do about it?

I like to suggest you check the settings in the Power Options.

1. Right click the Start's button at the bottom left side of the page

2. Click " power options "

You can also follow the steps below for troubleshooting the settings in the power options.
