What this guide is (and is not)
Idle Sleep after / “never sleep on AC” as the farm policy belongs in always-on-pc-earnapp-setup-europe-2026. Processor power management → Maximum processor state (100% vs 99%) belongs in earnapp-windows-max-processor-state-europe-2026.

Processor power management → System cooling policy (Active vs Passive) belongs in earnapp-windows-system-cooling-policy-europe-2026. Settings → System → Power & battery → Energy Saver belongs in earnapp-windows-energy-saver-europe-2026. Task Manager Efficiency mode / EcoQoS on the EarnApp leaf belongs in earnapp-windows-efficiency-mode-europe-2026. Game Mode belongs in earnapp-windows-game-mode-europe-2026.

Power button, lid close, hybrid sleep, Hibernate after, Modern Standby, Fast startup, NIC Device Manager, Wi‑Fi Power Saving Mode, random MAC, EEE / Green Ethernet, metered NIC, reboot autostart, SmartScreen, new-PC, offline/$0 and first PayPal have their own pages. Here the stall was Processor power management → Processor performance boost mode still sitting on Disabled (or Efficient Enabled) while Sleep after is already Never, Energy Saver is Off, Minimum and Maximum processor state are already 100%, and cooling policy is already Active on AC.
RefDeal will not invent a “Turbo unlock promo,” a Boost-mode coupon, or an EU payout minimum copied from a 2023 screenshot. Processor performance boost mode is a Windows plan enum (PERFBOOSTMODE): Disabled = no Intel Turbo Boost / AMD Precision Boost even at 100% ceiling; Enabled = allow opportunistic boost; Aggressive = prefer boost when thermal/power headroom exists; Efficient Enabled / Efficient Aggressive = Intel Speed Shift “efficient” variants that often stay out of Turbo. EarnApp is a Bright Data client that needs a live, recognisably residential session and a CPU that still wakes for the tray. Install from the tracked invite, then set Processor performance boost mode to Enabled (or Aggressive on a well-vented mini-PC) on AC. A travel laptop can keep Disabled or Efficient Enabled on battery; do not farm that chassis overnight in a bag.
Confirm it is boost mode, not the 99% max-state cap
Boost mode Disabled is not Maximum processor state 99% — it is a quiet-hour EarnApp stall from an explicit no-Turbo enum, not a missing promo code.
- Control Panel → Hardware and Sound → Power Options → your active plan → Change plan settings → Change advanced power settings. Expand Processor power management. You should see Minimum processor state, Maximum processor state, System cooling policy, and — if unhidden — Processor performance boost mode. Screenshot Plugged in and On battery before you touch anything. Settings → System → Power & battery does not show this enum
- If the boost-mode row is missing: elevated Command Prompt → powercfg -attributes SUB_PROCESSOR PERFBOOSTMODE -ATTRIB_HIDE. Close and reopen Advanced power settings. Search Microsoft Learn for “Processor performance boost mode”, not a Telegram “EarnApp turbo unlock.zip”
- If Maximum processor state is still 99% or 50% on AC, that is the max-processor-state guide first. A 99% ceiling often blocks Turbo even when boost mode is Enabled
- If Maximum is already 100% but Minimum is still 5%, that is the min-processor-state guide. Floor vs boost enum are different rows
- If both percentages are 100% but System cooling policy is still Passive, that is the cooling-policy guide. Active vs Passive is not PERFBOOSTMODE
- If Energy Saver is still On in Settings, that is the Energy Saver guide first. That toggle can cap performance independently of boost mode
- If Task Manager shows Efficiency on the EarnApp.exe leaf, that is the Efficiency-mode guide first. EcoQoS is a process QoS class, not a plan enum
- If Put my device to sleep after is 5, 10, or 15 minutes on AC, that is the always-on guide first. A parked CPU after Sleep is Sleep (or Modern Standby), not Disabled boost
- From an elevated Command Prompt: powercfg /q SCHEME_CURRENT SUB_PROCESSOR. Look for Processor performance boost mode / PERFBOOSTMODE. Typical AC farm values: Enabled (1) or Aggressive (2). Disabled (0) and Efficient Enabled (3) are the quiet-hour stalls this page is about
Set boost mode to Enabled on the EarnApp box, on AC
Do this on the machine that actually runs EarnApp, on the home Ethernet port (or stable home Wi‑Fi) you intend to keep. Do not fight a work laptop whose MDM restores Disabled, and do not farm a phone hotspot.
- Open /earnapp/ and use the RefDeal tracked invite if the client is not installed yet. The invite attributes a first signup. It does not change PERFBOOSTMODE
- Best EU path: spare Ethernet mini-PC — Processor performance boost mode = Enabled (or Aggressive if the chassis has a real cooler). Maximum processor state = 100% plugged in. Minimum processor state = 100%. System cooling policy = Active. Energy Saver Off. Efficiency leaf Off. Game Mode Off. Put my device to sleep after = Never. Leave the box on AC, vents clear
- On battery on a real travel laptop: Disabled or Efficient Enabled can be reasonable (cooler, quieter, no Turbo). Farm overnight only on AC with Enabled/Aggressive, 100% / 100%, Active cooling, Sleep Never, and the chassis not in a bag
- Tell the household: a dark monitor is supposed to happen; a spare box that is allowed to Turbo on AC is also supposed to happen on a farm. Do not buy a “Turbo unlock pack”. Skip EarnApp on a shared bedroom desktop that must stay thermally silent at night
After boost mode is Enabled and Sleep stays Never
Sign in with the same account you intend to keep. Leave the box on AC. Confirm the official tray through a quiet hour. Use /earnapp/ if you never started from our tracked invite.
- Tray Online through a quiet week with boost mode Enabled, max state 100%, min state 100%, cooling Active, and Sleep Never: leave it. We will not quote a fake first-day amount. Screenshot your own dashboard if you need a record
- Boost Enabled but Maximum processor state still 99%: switch to the max-processor-state guide. This page’s enum is done; the 99% ceiling still blocks Turbo
- Boost Enabled but Minimum processor state still 5%: switch to the min-processor-state guide
- Boost Enabled but System cooling policy still Passive: switch to the cooling-policy guide
- Boost Enabled but Energy Saver still On: switch to the Energy Saver guide
- Boost Enabled but EarnApp.exe still shows Efficiency: switch to the Efficiency-mode guide
- Boost Enabled but Sleep after still has minutes: switch to the always-on guide
- Boost Enabled, stall is SATA Partial/Slumber: switch to the AHCI HIPM/DIPM guide
- Boost Enabled, stall is NVMe ASPM: switch to the PCIe ASPM guide
- Boost Enabled, tray Limited on a modern laptop with Sleep Never: switch to the Modern Standby guide and run powercfg /a
- Boost Enabled, max 100%, min 100%, cooling Active, Sleep Never, Energy Saver Off, Efficiency leaf Off, Game Mode Off, Game Bar Off, HIPM/DIPM Active or N/A, ASPM Off, USB suspend Off, disk timeout Never, screen timeout short, lid Do nothing, hybrid sleep Off, power button Do nothing, Hibernate Never, Fast startup Off, NIC checkbox Off, EEE Off, Wi‑Fi unused or Maximum Performance, random MAC Off, unmetered home fibre, tray Online, still $0 after a quiet week: switch to the offline/$0 guide (firewall, official binary, Limited)
What we will not claim
There is no RefDeal EarnApp promo code, no published “Turbo Enabled bonus,” and no honest EU minimum we can paste from a 2023 screenshot. Primary CTA stays the EarnApp offer with our tracked invite. Hub: /guides/bandwidth-safety/. Starter: /en/start/bandwidth/.
