Hi Michael, thanks for reaching out. My name is Bernard a Windows fan like you. I'll be happy to help you out today.
I understand the issue you have, there is nothing to worry I am here to help, this issue happens when there is a miscalibration with the power options, and since the issue happens after the update, we will try to reinstall the battery by following the steps below:
Method 1. Reinstall Battery Drivers (Skip this process if you already tried to uninstall all drivers under the batteries)
-Press the Windows key + X
-Go to Device Manager
-Expand the Batteries
-Right-click then uninstall all drivers there
-Restart the PC and check it again
Method 2. Restore default power options
-Press Windows key + R then type:
powercfg -restoredefaultschemes
-Restart the PC and check.
Method 3. Run power, Troubleshooter
- Press Windows key + R then type:
msdt.exe /id PowerDiagnostic
- Click OK then follow the prompts to run the power troubleshooter
-Restart the device after
Note: If the issue persists, we need to run a battery report just to check if the battery itself is having a hardware issue, to do this, kindly follow the steps below:
Search for Command prompt > right-click and select “Run as administrator”
Copy, paste, and enter the command:
powercfg /batteryreport /output "C:\battery_report.html
Then go to Drive C: or C:\ and look for “battery_report”
Then please upload it to Cloud storage like OneDrive or any cloud storage you are using and please share the shareable link here.
