Laptop won't boot and charger won't work

Last night when I went to shut down my laptop, only the "install updates then shutdown" option was available and the usual "shut down" option wasn't there.

I decided to just go ahead and choose it, but because the "configuration screen" was taking too long, and the instruction said not to turn off the computer, I plugged in my laptop's charger (because the battery was low) and let it do whatever it had to do.

This morning, the "light" showed that it was fully charged so I unplugged the charger. Later, when I tried to turn it on, it wouldn't. Nothing happened. No "power on light" and no sound either. And when I tried plugging in the charger, the "charging light" didn't appear anymore.

Thinking the charger was the source of the problem I bought a new charger for it. But even with the new charger, the "charging light" still won't show up.

I have all my documents saved on it and now I can't turn them in tomorrow. I don't understand why it was working fine last night but this morning it will no longer boot and the charger doesn't work.

The battery is non-removable and its a Windows 10 machine.
