Windows 10: BATTERY ISSUE AND PERFORMANCE DECREASING.

Dear Microsoft team, I would like to raise issue of my HP laptop battery performance and the system getting slower day by day. So it has been two and a half years of my purchase my system has deteriorated drastically in the past 7 months, battery performance is almost zero, it doesn't stay without charging. It drains down automatically when the battery is at 50%. Along with that the system has slowed down too like I can not use multiple things at a time, only single software works at a time. I need the solution for this. Help me!!

:)
