I had this issue with Windows 10 and HP Pavilion. I I read several posts and tried them all for hours. I I finally got it to work like this; which is similar to some posts:
- Bring up device managerDevice Manager and uninstall the ACPI-Compliant Control Method Battery drive under battery“Battery” (or “Batteries”).
- Shut down the PC.
- Remove the battery and disconnect the AC.
- Hold the power switch down for 60 seconds.
- Connect the battery (no AC yet) and power on. PC The PC is now running on battery.
- Connect the AC. It It started charging! Note Note: connecting the battery BEFOREbefore the AC seemed to do the trick.
