Windows 11 H25.
I tried to solve this myself by searching on the web. But all solutions must be for older versions. I do not find the option to change the Power plan. I only find third part apps that can change. Has it been faded out from H25?

There are some power plans listed in Settings, but you have to click the little caret to see them.

There are several tutorials on the subject. They use the term power plan rather than power options but it's the same thing really.

See Active Power Plan - ElevenForumTutorials
Change Power Plan - ElevenForumTutorials
Add or Remove context menu entry 'Choose Power Plan' - ElevenForumTutorials
Create Custom Power Plan - ElevenForumTutorials
Delete Power Plan - ElevenForumTutorials
Export and Import Power Plan - ElevenForumTutorials
Change Power Plan Name - ElevenForumTutorials
Change Power Plan Settings - ElevenForumTutorials

Welcome to ElevenForum.

It's really worth making time to browse through the ElevenForum Tutorial index - there's a shortcut to it at the top of every ElevenForum page [within the Tutorials dropdown list].
- At the foot of the ElevenForum Tutorial index is a shortcut to download it as a spreadsheet.
- I download a new copy each month.
- By downloading it as a spreadsheet I can benefit from Excel's excellent filtering capabilities when I search for topics of interest.
- ElevenForum tutorials are also listed at Tutorials and there's a shortcut to that at the top of every page.

You can search ElevenForum using the search box in the top-right corner of all ElevenForum webpages or using Advanced Search - ElevenForum
You can also search ElevenForum threads in many general search engines, such as Google, by adding site:elevenforum.com after your search term. For example,
Taskbar setup site:elevenforum.com
