Windows 10: Battery Draining Quickly - Ran Battery Health Report

cn96h · Sep 24, 2019

In the past 1 - 1.5 weeks I have noticed that my battery is draining much quicker than it used to. I have a Dell XPS 13 that I bought new in July 2018. My battery, up until a week or so ago, was lasting anywhere from 5-8 hours depending on how much I used it throughout the day, now I am lucky if I make it 2.5 hours on a full charge. My laptop is also getting really hot on the bottom just from typing notes on Microsoft Word. I ran a Power Efficiency Diagnostic Report on my laptop to see what I could find out, but I am not exactly sure what to do from there.

I am not sure if this is the best way to share the report, so if I need to share it another way, please let me know!

Battery Draining Quickly - Ran Battery Health Report

Everything is in the report. There has been an issue with ntoskernel using a log of cycles. Edge also runs in the background for some reason. Make sure in Settings > Privacy > Background there are no apps allowed to run in the background.

Have you ran sfc /scannow?Also fix the sleep time when on battery. Run msdt.exe /id PerformanceDiagnostic

Battery draining quickly

Just need to ask if someone is experiencing battery drain within a day for the HTC 7 mozart phone.

I just got a new phone, and it is draining battery very quickly.

How can I see if any application or any WiFi or GSP application is utilizing too much CPU that is causing high battery usage?
