Windows 10: Battery FULL CHARGE CAPACITY Reset

I have a laptop where the Battery report tells me that the battery FULL CHARGE CAPACITY is much less than its DESIGN CAPACITY.I would like to know if there is a way to reset this setting somehow so that Windows can try to fully charge the battery, instead of stopping the charge at what is currently known as the battery FULL CHARGE CAPACITY.Right now, the numbers are: which results in only a few minutes of battery usage.Using the CPUID HWMonitor tool, I can see that the battery charge actually stops at 6749 mWh, instead of continuing, and Windows report the battery as

Acer battery won't charge

What if the battery unremoveable? Should I disassemble and remove it? also there is a switch underneath the case and around the RAM slot that prevent the laptop to turn on when the case is open and without the charger. Is that the same as removing the battery? although when turned on with charger, the laptop still see the battery. Thanks

I took the report, the design capacity was 41.440 mWh but full charge capacity is now 25.752 mWh. Is it that bad? Before this happened I believe HWMonitor also show the same number with 38% Wear Level.
Here's the report file

 

Battery FULL CHARGE CAPACITY Reset

Yves,

"Full charge capacity" means the capacity that the battery is managing to achieve. It is not a limit set by Windows or anything else; it is merely a reading of what the battery can actually do. You can use the comparison of Full charge capacity with Design
capacity to decide when to buy a replacement battery [I do the same regularly].

Full charge capacity will always decrease over time as the battery wears out. This is a chemical phenomenon not a Windows-imposed characteristic.

Windows display of "Fully charged [100%]" means - the battery is currently at 100% of what it is able to achieve. In other words, "Fully charged [100%]" is relative to Full charge capacity.

Sometimes, you can find that cycling through the battery three times** can improve the Full charge capacity a bit.
On at least one of my batteries, the maker recommends doing this every three months. But doing so is using up even more of its remaining life so you can complete this procedure only to find that you are worse off afterwards.

** In other words, loop through this three times -

• remove the AC power
• use up the whole charge by using the computer
• recharge fully

Battery FULL CHARGE CAPACITY Reset

I have a laptop where the Battery report tells me that the battery FULL CHARGE CAPACITY is much less than its DESIGN
CAPACITY.

I would like to know if there is a way to reset this setting somehow so that Windows can try to fully charge the battery, instead of stopping the charge at what is currently known as the battery FULL CHARGE CAPACITY.

Right now, the numbers are:

2017-05-23
5 441 mWh
48 669 mWh

which results in only a few minutes of battery usage.

Using the CPUID HWMonitor tool, I can see that the battery charge actually stops at 5441 mWh, instead of continuing, and Windows report the battery as being 100% charged at that level, even if it is only at 11% capacity.

So, can anyone provide a method to reset the battery FULL CHARGE CAPACITY to its DESIGN CAPACITY so that Windows can re-evaluate the true battery capacity, as if it was a brand new battery.

Thanks.
