Laptop Battery not charging "plugged in, not charging" Free Easy Battery Fix

[@hearts_and_thoughts7692]

I followed his instructions after my computer battery ceased to charge anymore. My computer would die if I didn't have it plugged in. After following his instructions, my battery went from 13% to 38% and is now 45%. Yay!!!! I am happy!!! Thank you for this fix!!

[@asusowner4257]

Was planning on buying a new battery because it wouldn't work unless plugged in and a "plugged in, not charging" message was appearing on my screen. Figured I would google the problem and saw this video. I am not tech savvy at all and found this an easy fix that worked immediately saving me money on a new battery. THANKS!!!

[@Kathleen3216]

Came home from the store, where they told me it was my battery. Said to order a new one and they would put it in. Found your video, and with the help of my husband, did this and now it says 1 hour until full charge. I have an HP Envy and it's only 3 yrs old. Thank you for sharing.

I really had my doubts when I clicked on a 7 year old video. Turns out, this worked on my Toshiba Satellite. From my experience, my Toshiba said it's charging but is stuck on 4%. Did this and it's on 10% and charging. Might buy another battery just in case but I can vouch for this vid. Thanks, man.

Wow, this actually worked for my Sony Vaio. The battery was showing as not being detected. Followed your exact instructions, and it's working! Yippeee! Thanks a lot

I almost gave up until I found this video and followed the instructions. It works! Thank you.

[@brianbrewster6532]

This works some of the time for some folks. But if your laptop is 2 - 3 years old and this "not charging" effect crops up then it probably is because your battery needs replaced. Also - big point - DO NOT KEEP YOUR LAPTOP PLUGGED IN 24/7!!! You should charge it once, unplug and and allow this to drain down to < 10 %. This will mean you may have to recharge your unit 3 - 5x per week but I promise you it will add months or even years to the longevity of your battery!

[@majorgnu]

That's outdated information based on old battery technology (NiCd) that's been out of use in laptops, cellphones and most power-hungry mobile electronics for many years. Look up the best practices for Lithium ion and Lithium polymer batteries. You'll see that leaving devices plugged in is not a problem by itself and that full discharge cycles are harmful. The two big rules for Li-ion and Li-po are: keep batteries from getting too hot and avoid full discharges.

None of the things listed on the web helped me at all. Not even this video. But I DID manage to fix my issue, very easily actually. Thanks for NOTHING HP! Go into your device manager, open batteries, right click on the second listing for the Microsoft ACI, click DISABLE. Wait a few seconds (30) right click on it again and click ENABLE. Bam, fixed!

[@SuperBrainAK]

is there any explanation as to why? im thinking that is is because the drivers keep track of the batteries capacity and will not charge a "tired" pack, so uninstalling them would get rid of the "logs" so it doesnt remember that that is a tired pack, also what does charging and discharging the pack do for it? i would really like to know why this happens, thanks for sharing!

[@daveharris501]

It seems to happen to a lot of different Laptops (Acer, Dell, HP, Toshiba, etc.) but the one thing they have in common is the Windows OS, (Windows 10, 8.1, 7, XP) so I'm guessing it's yet another piece of dodgy Microsoft coding.

[@TuanNguyen-ge7yg]

[@jeeper426]

this problem is caused by a bug in the Microsoft ACPI drivers, and no fix has been applied yet by Microsoft because as they have said "its not a significant problem that causes issues with performance", i've done this same thing on my dell 14z about a dozen times now, and really you dont have to disconnect and restart then reconnect and restart, you can go into the devmgmt.msc control console, uninstall acpi compliant devices/composite battery, wait a few seconds, then do a scan for hardware changes, it'll re-detect the devices, once they install, disconnect the ac adapter for about a minute, then reconnect, and windows should show "plugged in, charging", i just wish microsoft would fix this known problem with windows already

[@thomasparg1981]

Fox Nakamori This worked as well thanks!But do you do the drain and re-charge step 3 times??

[@jeeper426]

Thomas Evolve i haven't yet the problem i have is i only use my laptop majority of the time at work and occasionally when mobile, but i've found that the problem reoccurs when restarting the computer (from off not just rebooting windows from start->restart or from command prompt with shutdown -r -f options and i keep having to re-apply the little band-aid which annoys the crap out of me, i hope Microsoft fixes this problem soon tbh, and i'm glad the fixes helped you out

[@thomasparg1981]

Im still working on it,i only use my laptop (almost 6 years old) and its plugged in 24/7 at home.I started with 73% and now its up to 97% charged.I have charged and drained the battery twice now,will see it goes up to 100% after third charge.

The only thing I did different was I left the 3rd line(composite battery) uninstalled the other 2 as you instructed and I'm very happy that all is as it should be. Thank you very much.

[@gladyszryan]

If you have a newer laptop that uses Li-Ion/Li-Fe/Li-Po batteries, do NOT fully discharge it, that's bad for the batteries.

[@majorgnu]

And by "newer" you mean "it doesn't belong in a museum." That advice has been outdated for a long time now. I can't remember the last time I saw a laptop or cellphone that used NiCd batteries.

[@amormarzan4873]

Major Gnuisance i wish you luck in your belief. That reminder does not only apply to NiCd. All batteries have a lower cutoff voltage. if you fully discharge it and leave it there for enough time, it will naturally self discharge to lower than the cutoff voltage and if left unnoticed, will kill the battery.

I followed every step, but it still went to "plugged in, not charging". What do I do now? :(

[@r4microds]

If this is your case, chances are your issue is hardware related. This sometimes happens (most commonly in DELL laptops). The AC adapter has an ID pin that tells the laptop that the charger is offical from the manufacturer. You can still turn on the laptop using the charger, but it will refuse to charge the battery if the pin is broken. You can try twisting the end that goes into your laptop a little. Sometimes this works. Otherwise you will most likely need to replace the AC adapter (charger) for your laptop. If possible, try someone elses charger or maybe go to a tech store because if it still wont work with their charger, its likely that the hardware fault is actully on your laptop's mobo instead of your charger. In this case, you most likely will need to get a new laptop unless you're good at soldiering and fixing circuits. lol Either that, or continue to endure no charge. If your battery is the same as someone else you know that can actually charge theirs, just keep swapping batteries.

[@crackerworld]

***** sometimes the charger is fine original and all and the dell laptop has it's recognition chip broken so it won't recognise the charger Also this chip is hard to find if not impossible P.S. ..just saying.

[@r4microds]

yea, thats a good point. I wouldnt purchase dell. Seriously, if you want a nice laptop that will last i'd go lenovo. (just my opinion). Dell is notorious for faulty machines and my parents have this charging issue because they never listened to me when i told them not to get a DELL. ;) live and learn right?

remove battery, disassemble laptop, remove clock battery, let set for a while, put back together, problem fixed... the problem is firmware in the laptop has detected a overheating issue and stopped the charging of the battery to prevent an explosion... usually not the batteries fault, but the firmware still triggers... this is common if your laptop has ever overheated...

if you can charge up to 80 and it just stops there, it is most likely the bios, you can change this in the bios, it is best you have it on if you want to have the battery in your laptop longer. it saves your battery from exploding if it gets overcharged and it gets weeker every time you charge it up 100%

It didn't work for me. maybe i need to replace my battery since my laptop is a 2009 Asus k50c

[@lyricalsnaps1060]

lol lol lol my lapto is a hp from that date

[@jpar2702]

Just did this and it WORKED!!!! THANK GOD

[@francoisgrenier]

did not work. battery is brand new. any suggestions?

[@lukeskywalker2024]

Same thing is happening with my battery. It's brand new and isn't charging.

[@maryellenjones5343]

francois grenier Ditto here. I installed a brand new, "genuine Dell" battery, identical to my original (which still works but is weakening). Laptop suddenly complains it's "not a genuine Dell" after 3 months of perfect performance. Message also says "battery 84%, plugged in, not charging." If I unplug, laptop dies sudden death (not shut-down),

[@francoisgrenier]

Mary Jones i solved my problem...it was the charge cable that sucked.

[@clintonayton6863]

I found mine would constantly say plugged in not charging. I powered off my device. Disconnect power plug. Removed battery. Pressed the power button about 5 to 10 times. Then reinstalled the battery and connected power. Wait a few minutes and turn on laptop. It works for me everytime.

Need to use an old Lenovo U350 laptop which already has a replacement battery and has never worked or charged properly so always had to be plugged into the mains. However just done as per the video and now works perfectly on battery only. Thank you.

The problem is not for laptops is for the charger "AC adapter"

[@sandye9029]

Worked great, had to pull and reinsert lead a few times after the steps above, battery now charging on a Dell, thanks

[@xoxoerxcka7828]

I have Windows 8 and yesterday it started bugging out, When i take the charger out it shuts down. I tried the uninstall thing and it didnt work, I need help because back to school is coming and i havent fixed this. And its still 25% plugged in, not charging.

[@animenaruto4863]
