    Why is my Lenovo’s battery going down even though it’s plugged in?


    My Lenovo laptop’s battery keeps going down no matter what I do.I thought it was my faulty charger so i purchased a new OFFICIAL Lenovo charger but it still wouldn’t charge properly, at this point I decided to purchase a new battery, not the official Lenovo one hoping for a permanent fix.Unfortunately the new battery didn’t fix my problem at all, now it does charge a bit but only when my laptop is turned off and when I attempt to turn it on it completely shuts off even though it is still PLUGGED IN.Any suggestions on what the problem may be? Should I buy an official Lenovo battery? Or should

    :)

    "Battery plugged in, not charging"

    Thank you for the response.

    For your Lenovo P500 laptop, there are three possible power management software that came pre-loaded with your device:
    Lenovo Energy Management, Lenovo Power Manager, or
    OneKey Optimizer. There should be an icon on your system tray to launch the power management software currently installed in your Windows 10 device.

    As an alternative, you can download Lenovo Settings which is available for free from the Windows store and follow these steps:

    • Open Lenovo Settings.
    • Select the energy management icon.
    • Set Conservation mode as Off.
    • With AC adapter plugged in, the battery level will keep increasing.

    If the suggestion above doesn't work, feel free to post back so we can further troubleshoot.
