By default, Windows 7 allows you to delete all the customized power plans you have created but it doesn’t let you delete the default one. If you can’t stand the default power plan and you need to get rid of it because you want to use the one you have created, here is a little hack which will be very handy to you!

1. Click Start.
2. In the Search field, type cmd (don’t press Enter!).
3. Right click the icon and from the menu select: Open Command Prompt with administrator privileges.
4. In the Command Prompt, type: Powercfg List. This should show you a list with  all the power plans available.
5. Type Powercfg -Delete GUID. Replace GUID with the default Power plan’s name you have got from the list above.
6. Done!
