  1. Does the battery percentage of my laptop affect performance even when it's plugged in?


    So I have a laptop that I use plugged in most of the time, and I use a first-party software provided by the manufacturer of the laptop to limit the charge of the battery to between 70% and 80 to lengthen the lifespan of the battery. Does this affect the laptop's performance in any way? ie. lower performance compared to being fully charged

    :)

    I've followed the suggestions people posted on that thread but nothing solved the problem so far. I've made a short screenshot of the battery report which explains whats going on better:

    The battery is on AC for some reason and won't charge, i've tried taking the battery out and inserting it in again while it was on AC but still no success.

  3. Battery Percentage on My Laptop

    Hey Team,

    So I've been trying to do some of my studies throughout the day, and as my laptop battery runs out, I plug it in. However, for some reason, lately when I have plugged it in the battery percentage seems to stay the same the whole time. This didn't occur when I first used the laptop. It is an acer aspire but I do not know if it is troubles with the power cord as I have tried plugging it in at different outlets or if it is the laptop itself. The power cord has no wires open or anything like that which is why I don't understand why the battery percentage is not going up.

    Thank you muchly

    Plugged in but battery does not charge

    If the laptop works without the battery then charger is functioning correctly. Take a cloth with a bit of rubbing alcohol on it (or some on-the-go alcohol swabs), and clean the metal contacts that connect your battery to your laptop.

    Make sure to install all Windows important updates.

    Install latest versions of your laptop device drivers you can download the latest device drivers from the device manufacturer or from your laptop manufacturer website.


    Step 1

    1. Shutdown your laptop.

    2. Remove the battery.

    3. Connect the AC power adapter to your laptop.

    4. Power on the laptop

    5. Open the Device Manager by typing Devmgmt.msc into Start Menu or from Control Panel.

    6. Under the Batteries category, right-click all of the Microsoft ACPI Compliant Control Method Battery listings, and select Uninstall (it’s ok if you only have 1).

    2. Remove the battery.
