Answer: A

Explanation:

Adam will enable the USB selective suspend option from the Advanced Power Settings. USB devices draw power from a computer. USB selective suspend option in Windows 10 can be used to reduce the power usage of some USB devices. USB selective suspend is enabled in Windows 10 by default when laptop runs on battery.

Advance Power Plan settings are used to customize the power setting according to the individual computer. To configure the advanced power plan settings, click the Change Advanced Power Settings item in the Edit Plan Settings dialog box. Unlike the basic plan settings, only a user with elevated privileges can modify advanced power plan settings.
