Solution 1

• Check your battery saving settings
• Theres a chance that the Anniversary Update
  somehow changed your battery saving settings. And
  if your battery settings are changed, logically
  your device is going to consume more battery. So,
  before doing anything else, go and make sure your
  battery saving settings remained the same after
  the Anniversary Update.

3
To make sure your battery saving settings are
same, do the following

• Go to the Settings app
• Now, go to System gt Battery 
• Make sure everything is as you left it before the
  Anniversary Update

• Make sure everything is as you left it before the
  Anniversary Update
• Once you make sure your battery saving settings
  are okay, it wont hurt if you quickly check the
  brightness level of your screen. To check your
  brightness settings, stay in Settings gt System gt
  Battery, and just go to Display.
• If you determined that the Anniversary Updated
  did nothing to your battery saving settings, try
  with some of the solutions listed below.

Solution 2

• Check your power plan
• Just like the Anniversary Update could change
  your battery saving settings, it might do the
  same thing with your current power plan. So, the
  next thing youre going to do, in order to
  increase the battery life of your device is to
  check if your power plan is alright

To see your current power plan in Windows 10

• Go to Search, type power plan, and go to Choose a
  power plan
• Make sure your power plan is same as you left it
  before the Anniversary Update (if you want your
  battery to last longer, we recommend the Power
  saver plan)

Solution 3

• Check if your drivers are updated
• If a driver of a certain hardware is outdated,
  battery drain issues might occur. So, if you
  checked your power saver settings, and power
  plans, go and check if all your drivers are
  updated. To find the list of every driver
  installed on your computer, go to Search, type
  device manager, and open Device Manager.
• Battery drain issue can also be caused if some
  drivers are not fully compatible with the
  Anniversary Update. So, its important to have
  all your drivers updated, not just because of the
  battery drain issue, but to prevent other
  problems, as well. We recommend you to download
  this driver updater tool to automatically download
  all the outdated drivers on your PC.

Solution 4

• Find out which programs drain most battery
• Since the Anniversary Update is a brand new
  version of Windows 10, some programs and apps
  might just behave different than in the previous
  version. And by behave different, we mean drain
  more battery. So, go and see which program or app
  drains the most battery on your system, and
  either stop using it, or accustom yourself to it.
• It would be even better if you have access to a
  computer thats still running Windows 10 version
  1511, so you can compare two results. Heres what
  you need to do, to check which program or app
  drains the most battery on your system.

• Go to the Settngs app
• Now, go to System gt Battery
• And go to Battery usage by app

10

• Youll now see the list with every program
  installed on your computer, and how much battery
  it consumes. Practice has shown us that Google
  Chrome is actually the biggest battery eater in
  Windows 10, so if you cant find another solution
  for the battery drain problem, try using another
  browser.
• Thats about it, we hope that at least some of
  these solutions helped you to solve the battery
  drain problem caused by the Anniversary Update.
  However, due to various factors that can
  influence the battery usage on ones system, we
  still cant guarantee that any of these solutions
  will work for you.
