    Laptop not charging


    Was working nicely till the evening and was charged, after an online session battery was low so plugged in the charger, came back later to see that the thing was not charging, checked the cables and sockets, no problem with them. The laptop is out of power and won't boot up.


    I have sent a mail to the manufacturer regarding this, but I am dropping this question here too to get some suggestions. I need to attend another online session so this problem needs to be sorted quick.

    I am trying some things myself, please comment with some fixes.



    Thank you.

    :)

    Laptop no longer charging since Windows 10 update

    If the laptop works without the battery then charger is functioning correctly. Take a cloth with a bit of rubbing alcohol on it (or some on-the-go alcohol swabs), and clean the metal contacts that connect your battery to your laptop.

    Make sure to install all Windows important updates.

    Install latest versions of your laptop device drivers you can download the latest device drivers from the device manufacturer or from your laptop manufacturer website.


    Step 1

    1. Shutdown your laptop.

    2. Remove the battery.

    3. Connect the AC power adapter to your laptop.

    4. Power on the laptop

    5. Open the Device Manager by typing Devmgmt.msc into Start Menu or from Control Panel.

    6. Under the Batteries category, right-click all of the Microsoft ACPI Compliant Control Method Battery listings, and select Uninstall (it’s ok if you only have 1).
