I Want To See All
I think I have the perfect power plan for my windows 10 computer. What I would like to do is see all my options at once (not click on each one), in case I ever have to put them back.

I'm not sure you can see all the options at once, but to put them all back you don't need to. Just export your power plan then you can import it when you want to set everything back to your chosen settings.
Export and Import Power Plan in Windows 10 | Tutorials
I stand corrected, I would like to see the entire power scheme that I'm currently running. Instead of openning up each and every item, I would like to know if I can it all at once.
This was the best I could get in Control Panel, Power Options:
Attachment 219217
Unfortunately that panel, among many others, can't be resized to show more no matter how many of the + are clicked to open more. Only the scroll bar shows more and there's no Select and Copy for it. Maybe this is time for a suggestion of a third-party program?
Open a elevated command prompt.
Enter powercfg /list to see the availabel power plans. The current plan will be marked with a *.
Copy the GUID of the active plan (double click on it) then click the right mouse button.Code:C:\Users\ztruk>powercfg /list Existing Power Schemes (* Active) ----------------------------------- Power Scheme GUID: 381b4222-f694-41f0-9685-ff5bb260df2e (Balanced) Power Scheme GUID: 8c5e7fda-e8bf-4a96-9a85-a6e23a8c635c (High performance) * Power Scheme GUID: a1841308-3541-4fab-bc81-f71556f20b4a (Power saver)
Enter powercfg /query 8c5e7fda-e8bf-4a96-9a85-a6e23a8c635c (<-- use yours)
You'll get a list of all the possible power settings and their current values. You can save this in a .txt file for reference but also export the plan to import at another time if needed.
There is another relevant PowerCfg switch
that shows all properties including hidden ones.Code:PowerCfg /qh
This switch was explained in the 2009 & 2010 editions of the MS document Power Policy Configuration and Deployment in Windows.
I have not been able to find any later editions or any current links to the 2009, 2010 ones. Here is one extract that refers to the /qh switch

Thanks, had not seen that before. Also found this:
powercfg /query [scheme_GUID [sub_GUID ]]
If neither the parameter scheme_GUID or sub_GUID are provided, the settings of the current active power scheme are displayed. If the parameter sub_GUID is not specified, all settings in the specified power scheme are displayed.
