When and why? :heavy_exclamation_mark:\n\nBoost Changer is made to control the frequencies of the CPUs. It can also manage the processor's energy consumption through Energy-Performance Preference.\n\nIn generall this app does not need root rights but when you hit the Turn Off or On button a popup window will ask you about your root password.\n\n#### why?\n\n- If you have Intel then in your Kernel there is a file called \u003ccode\u003e/sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_pstate/no_turbo\u003c/code\u003e.\n\u003e To turn off or on your turbo boost you have to change this file and that is what this app does.\u003cbr\u003e\n\n- If you have Intel then In your Kernel there is a file called \u003ccode\u003e/sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_pstate/max_perf_pct\u003c/code\u003e.\n\u003e when you change the energy performance in Boost Changer you have to change this file and that is what this app does.\n\n#### :pushpin: This app will only work on a real machine. :pushpin:\n\n## What it isn't\nThis is just a GUI application and it is not meant to replace \n[TLP](https://linrunner.de/en/tlp/tlp.html), [powertop](https://01.org/powertop) or \nany other power management / energy consumption service. It is meant just to \nprovide quick access to ``sysfs`` settings related to Intel Processors and \nin fact it can run on top of TLP.\n\n## Installation\n### Download\n  \n  OS| Release Link |\n--- | --- |\nDebian | [AppImage](https://github.com/nbebaw/boostchanger/releases/download/v5.0.3/boostchanger-5.0.3.AppImage) :cd: | \nUbuntu | [AppImage](https://github.com/nbebaw/boostchanger/releases/download/v5.0.3/boostchanger-5.0.3.AppImage) :cd: | \nFedora | [AppImage](https://github.com/nbebaw/boostchanger/releases/download/v5.0.3/boostchanger-5.0.3.AppImage) :cd: | \nRedhat | [AppImage](https://github.com/nbebaw/boostchanger/releases/download/v5.0.3/boostchanger-5.0.3.AppImage) :cd: | \nSolus | [AppImage](https://github.com/nbebaw/boostchanger/releases/download/v5.0.3/boostchanger-5.0.3.AppImage) :cd: | \nOpenSUSE | [AppImage](https://github.com/nbebaw/boostchanger/releases/download/v5.0.3/boostchanger-5.0.3.AppImage) :cd: | \nArch | [AUR](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/boostchanger-git) :cd: | \n\n[![Get it from the Snap Store](https://snapcraft.io/static/images/badges/en/snap-store-black.svg)](https://snapcraft.io/boostchanger)\n### How to run AppImage\n```bash\n# Download the app\nwget https://github.com/nbebaw/boostchanger/releases/download/v5.0.3/boostchanger-5.0.3.AppImage\n\n# Make the app executable \nchmod +x boostchanger-5.0.3.AppImage\n\n# Run the app\n./boostchanger-5.0.3.AppImage\n```\n## Installation only for Developer\nYou can help me to improve this app\n\n```bash\n# Clone this repo\ngit clone https://github.com/nbebaw/boostchanger.git\n\n# Install dependencies\nnpm install\n\n# Run the App\nnpm run\n```\n\n## Common Issue for AppImage\n\u003cpre\u003eThe SUID sandbox helper binary was found, but is not configured correctly.
