Windows 10: Windows 10 has battery 1 and battery 2 on elite laptop reversed.

Windows 10 has battery 1 and battery 2 on elite laptop reversed. HP test has them correctly installed and identified. Now have a laptop with 2hrs of charge if I'm lucky instead of almost 24hrs before windows 10 updates developed the error. Have done all I can find online. Fresh install of windows 10, twice. deleted drivers and reinstalled multiple times. removed battery and power cycled dozens of times. Can role back windows as the update is passed time allowed. Any options would be greatly appreciated. Not want to spend another $2500 on a laptop when this is perfectly functional. Wi
