I once set up Afterburner to display graphs like FPS and temperature. On the left, I adjusted core and voltage settings, checked functionality, then reset everything. Now I’m confused about whether I overclocked, even though the default 2.5 GHz core speed shows no change. I also found out my CPU is locked, which suggests there might not have been any overclocking. The hardware is an AMD A10-7400P with Radeon R6/R5.

Don't worry you didn't do anything.
Afterburner is a GPU overclocker. If you think you may have modified the GPU settings do this:
1. Open Afterburner
2. Click the 'Reset' button at the bottom
3. Click the 'Apply' button next to it
4. Make sure the 'Apply overclocking at startup' light is on
That should reset your GPU to factory settings. Your CPU can't be overclocked from Afterburner, so theres no reason to worry about it.

Afterburner applies to your graphics card, while you're referring to your CPU. These are two separate parts.
