Any simple way to automate Windows control panel and other settings?

[Bogdanov89]

Can anyone please suggest a simple way to automate doing some various basic config in Windows 7 & 10 like:

- set power plan in Power Options (control panel) to High Performance
- set Communications in Sound CP to "Do Nothing"
- set Visual Effects in Performance Options under System to "adjust for best performance"
- set the Time Zone under Date & time
- disable Enhance Pointer Precision under Mouse in Control Panel
- set all three sliders in Keyboard in CPanel to Short/Fast/Fast
- set certain services to Automatic like the SSDP Discovery
- change various new settings in the Windows 10 Settings like disabling Notifications, Game Bar and Focus Assist

Those are examples of some of the CPanel/Settings i need to do on basically every computer i install/reinstall so i would really love a way to "one click" the whole process.

I have tried googling the various related topics but in the vast majority of cases the methods i saw were very complicated and way beyond my knowledge.
I am hoping there is some simplistic GUI tool that can make a batch/script or something similar that doesnt require an advanced knowledge of Powershell or Regedit.

Thank you for reading and helping out.

I would imagine you could do most of that with regitry settings.

Batch file/registry settings can perform this. I will start the first one for you, create a batch file and add this on line 1. Save it as Settings.bat or settings.cmd and run.

powercfg.exe /setactive 8c5e7fda-e8bf-4a96-9a85-a6e23a8c635c

To continue, edit the batch file on line 2 for a registry setting (this one is a little harder but this one IS a registry setting.

Good luck.

You should probably read up on imaging, or cloning. It was effectively designed to do what youre after, provided I've understood you.

Generally speaking with most sys admin stuff, there is often some amount of fiddling and learning curve if you want to do things efficiently. IT guys would be out of the job otherwise.

You can use WMIC for a lot of that stuff.
