  1. Laptop only runs when plugged in to power supply


    I have acer aspire A715-76G laptop one year old. Laptop runs only when plugged to power supply, when I remove the charge, it turns off within minutes or some time instantly. It charges properly and has sufficient battery percentage. Today I tried to charge it 100 percentage and after using 20 minutes battery percentage become 84 and laptop shutdown.

    :)

    Plugged In, Not Charging

    Sometimes depending on your Windows 10 Build, your battery will not charge to 100%, this extends the life of your battery . . . plug out the laptop, drain the battery for 10 - 15 minutes, plug it back in and see if it starts to charge the battery

    If however, your battery is not charging at all in Windows 10, follow these steps to rectify this issue:

    • Disconnect Power Supply
    • Remove battery
    • Connect Power Supply
    • Turn on the laptop
    • Control Panel - Device Manager
    • Under the Batteries category, right-click all instances of Microsoft ACPI Compliant Control Method Battery , and Uninstall
    • Shutdown
    • Disconnect Power Supply
    • Insert battery
    • Connect Power Supply
    • Turn on the laptop

    I Hope this Answers your Question!

    charging laptop from power bank

    A power bank made specifically for laptop computers will plug into the same port on the laptop that the AC adapter does. The power bank you have listed will not work as it only provides a USB outlet/outputs. It does not supply the voltage nor the proper connector to plug into your laptop's power supply port.
