Windows 10: Battery Showing 0% After Latest Windows 11 Update

On 14 Jan 2024 my Windows forced me to install an update and since then the battery is not recognized. My Lafite laptop does not power up if the cable is not plugged in and it turns off immediately if I take the wire off. Thus, the functionality of the laptop has been seriously compromised.From the Device manager I tried disable/enable the battery elementsI also tried uninstalling the driver and scanning for hardware changesI went to Windows Update and tried uninstalling the only update that it made on January KB5032007None of these worked.

Battery Showing 0% After Latest Windows 11 Update - Power and Battery Manager Failure after update

The device driver seems to fail or is properly configured. The failure is render the surface useless. All advice provide before including reinstall of Win 11

I installed the latest round of Windows 11 updates a few days ago and the computer seemed really sluggish. Eventually I noticed that the battery was stuck at 0% and doesn't seem to be charging. Upon digging around in settings, it didn't seem to drain out; it just went from 100% to 0% immediately after installing the latest round of updates (see picture below). Things I've already tried to fix it:

- Ran a battery_report: no red flags, showing 82% capacity.

- Tried a different charger: I own several Surface units with verified functional chargers.

- Reversed the current charger (turn it upside down so the pins line up the other way).

- Restored Windows to before the updates were installed: it didn't fix the problem so I've now updated to current again.

- Fiddled with the power and battery settings: currently using Recommended.

- Leaving the computer off and plugged in to see if it takes a charge: still at 0% after extended time off.

Event manager shows that it started after this:

The device parameters for ACPI\PNP0C0A\1 were migrated from the previous OS installation.

last device instance code: ACPI\PNP0C0A\1

This problem persists since month and all previous given advice by Microsoft including reinstallation and running updates did not resolve it.

We need Microsoft to come up with a solution.
