How to Enable the New Energy Usage Page in Windows 11 Build 23506 Using ViveTool
This guide explains how to activate the renamed Energy Usage page introduced in Windows 11 Build 23506 by downloading ViveTool, running it with administrator privileges, and executing the appropriate enable command, allowing users to view placeholder power‑consumption data on both desktop and battery‑powered devices.
According to a recent tweet by PhantomOcean3, the Power Settings page for battery usage in the latest Windows 11 Build 23506 preview has been renamed to Energy Usage.
Even on desktop PCs without a battery, the Energy Usage page will display related data; devices with a battery can switch between Battery and Energy to view information for both.
However, this feature is not fully developed yet; the displayed energy and consumption values are placeholders and do not show actual energy information.
You can enable this new feature using the ViveTool utility:
1. Download the ViveTool tool from its GitHub page and extract it to any folder, remembering the path (e.g., C:\Program Files (x86)\ViVeTool-v0.3.2).
2. Press the Windows key (or click the Start menu), type “cmd”, and open Command Prompt with administrator rights.
3. Use the cd command to navigate to the ViveTool folder, for example cd C:\Program Files (x86)\ViVeTool-v0.3.2.
4. Then enter vivetool /enable /id:44663396,44663406 and press Enter.
5. Restart the computer.
