Windows 10: Battery percentage 255%

Hello!

I have problem with my battery
It shows that the battery is plugged and that has 255%, even if it's not plugged
Also, it has X on its icon
It happened after I powered it on again after my Windows crashed for no reason

:)

That's a LOT of percentages, how big is that battery anyways? (normally it just goes to 100%) but dude, 255% ? Now that's a very serious bug! *chuckle

As 255% is FF (hex) - all 1's - suggests a certain kind of bug...

If you have a live boot disk, that should prove it's not hardware related.

You could also try a 3rd party battery monitoring program, but if that reads the same buggy info from the OS, might give garbage too.

It's one of the Long term batteries with the bulge at the bottom. Since it use to last 4-5 hours, it should now last 10-12 hours *Tongue
