I installed the program called ThrottleStop. Right under the bottom theres a button with a tick that is called Prochot 95°C. What does it do? And how do I activate it again cuz I wrongly disabled it :/

The PROCHOT box alerts you when your processor hits its safe operating temperature. Usually it stays clear, but a good laptop should have enough cooling so overheating never happens. If you're under pressure or playing a game and see a check mark on the PROCHOT box, it means your CPU has reached that temperature. The box will stay marked even after things cool down, so you don’t need to constantly monitor it. ThrottleStop doesn’t have to run because this data is already in the CPU. As soon as ThrottleStop starts or operates, if...
For Intel Ivy Bridge mobile CPUs, the processor hot (PROCHOT) signal becomes active at a peak core temperature of 105°C. Intel states that temperatures lower than this are considered a "safe operating temperature."
A solid spot to post Throttlestop questions.

Throttlestop has the ability to turn off various throttling methods. However, unless your CPU is overheating, I wouldn't be too concerned. If it is, I'd be very worried.
The PROCHOT box alerts you when your processor hits its safe operating limit. Usually, this indicator should stay off. A properly built laptop should have sufficient cooling so it never overheats. If you're under pressure or playing a demanding game and see a check mark on the PROCHOT box, it means your CPU has reached that temperature. The box stays marked even if things cool down afterward. ThrottleStop won't need to run because the throttling data is already stored in the CPU. As soon as ThrottleStop activates or continues, any overheating will trigger a check mark. Pressing this box clears the information from both the CPU and ThrottleStop. When the PROCHOT box is clear, clicking it again won't set that warning on the CPU. Only a processor in danger can create this alert.
The Intel recommended throttling temperature for a 7200U is 100°C.

Your screenshot shows only 95°C from ThrottleStop. This suggests your laptop maker chose to disregard Intel's guidance and set a lower safe temperature, possibly to safeguard weaker parts or just for comfort. Manufacturers can usually adjust the official thermal limit by up to 15°C. I’d consider returning a laptop if a company did this.
