[FIXED] The "255% available" battery bug that never got resolved.

I really, really, really need to talk to the leader of the Windows team at Microsoft about this annoying bug that happens whenever I remove my laptop's battery: 

I don't know why you guys never fixed it. It's been there since 1803 and affects everyone. Of course those who have batteries might not be able to see it. But those who are living with no battery laptops, can't they just have a "No battery present" thing instead of that? Or are you pranking everyone off?

Lots and lots of people have been reporting about this to communities but never get a helpful answer. Searching for "windows 10 255% battery" shows tons of unanswered questions and not those tech newsletters saying this is a common problem, although it is. Is that tooltip ballon so small that just... no one, even you guys, care about it?

PLEASE FIX THIS BEFORE RELEASING VERSION 2004~~, if you want your OS to be considered as "Prefect"~~ FIXED, see my last answer below

    This does not solve the issue.  When I do what your instructions state of only shows the updates that I installed this morning...no other! Even though my laptop jas been uodating for the last twp years i have owned it! I have even searched my entire hard drive for the KB4551762 update, cant be found.  What is going on?

    A fix for this 255% issue is well over due now.
