Hello, i just bought predator helios 16 2023 2 days ago, I have a problem with the predator sense,

It says "when AC adapter is plugged in, mode setting will be restored." But the AC adapter is already plugged in and charging fine.

How do I manually select performance or turbo mode when its not even on the choices?

is there a possibility that there is a problem on my ac adapter?

    I'm sorry to hear that you're having trouble with your Predator Helios 16 2023. Based on my search, it seems like other users have also reported similar issues with the performance mode not being available. It's possible that the issue is related to the laptop's cooling system, which can cause the CPU to overheat and throttle performance.

    Here are some steps you can try to resolve the issue:

    1. Update your laptop's BIOS and graphics drivers to the latest version.
    2. Optimize your laptop's power settings for better performance.
    3. Use a cooling pad or prop up your laptop to improve airflow and reduce heat buildup.
    4. If the issue persists, you may want to contact Acer support for further assistance.

    Regarding your question about manually selecting performance or turbo mode, it's possible that these modes are not available due to the issue with the cooling system. However, you can try the following steps to see if they become available:

    1. Make sure your laptop is plugged in and charging.
    2. Open the Predator Sense app.
    3. Click on the "Modes" tab.
    4. If the performance or turbo mode is not available, try clicking on the "Default" mode and then switching back to the "Performance" or "Turbo" mode.

    Regarding your question about the AC adapter, it's possible that there is an issue with the adapter, but it's more likely that the issue is related to the laptop's cooling system. If you're still having trouble after trying the steps above, I would recommend contacting Acer support for further assistance.

    I hope this helps!
