stuck in battery-saving mode

Hello

Today I bought a used hp envy with an i7 4702mq and 16 g of ram.

It runs win 10 and when I click on the batteryicon down in the statusbar, it showes it is in battery saving mode. I can not click on the battery-saving-mode-icon (when I do nothing happens). When I go to the parameters, (additional power settings or whatever they are called in english) I can choose high performance but when I click again on the battery in the bar in the bottom of the screen, it says I'm still in battery saving mode.

I have been trying to locate HP Power Plan Utility, but my software is in french, and I dont know if I have it or what it is named here (I dont speak french yet)

first thing would be perhaps to change win 10 into english language.

It has a fast processor andIi would like to use it. I will always have it connected to a powersupply so batterylife does not matter to me.

I appreciate any help, thanks.
