Plugged in but battery does not charge

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).

Laptop accidently switched into hibernation mode after it's plugged in (reserve battery level) by default

I felt very disappointed that my laptop computer suddenly turned off (hibernated) after the PC plugged in when it reached the 7% backup battery level. Even though hibernation should not be allowed after the PC laptop is plugged in (battery charging). This can be caused due to a development error when setting the default setting for "Critical battery level action".

The correct default setting for Critical battery level action (plugged in):

1. Do nothing (default, recommended)
   
2. Hibernate (incorrect setting and is not recommended).
   
3. Sleep
   
4. Shut down
   

I request that Windows development will fix those setting errors as soon as possible. Thanks for providing that information.
