Windows 10: I used my laptop yesterday evening, and then its battery died. Now it won't charge or turn on."

I used my HP laptop yesterday evening. After some time, the battery ran out and it shut down automatically. I plugged in the charger, but it didn’t start charging. I tried turning it on, but there was no response—no lights, no fan sound, nothing. The same charger was working a few days ago, so I’m not sure whether the issue is with the charger, the charging port, or the laptop itself. Please help me figure out what might be wrong and how to fix it.

Laptop dies without power supply even tho battery says it has charge


My laptop (HP 15 Notebook PC) won't boot unless it is plugged in even though the battery apparently has charge. (It won't charge past 73% also?) If I unplug the power supply it will die instantly. This started happening yesterday after I installed the latest windows 10 update and I just wanted to see if It is software thing before I go and buy a new battery, any help appreciated thanks.
