HP ProBook 450 G0
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I was previously using Win8.1Pro and the charging would stop at 95% (plugged in, not charging) and after charging would go below that level, charging would kick in like 90% (plugged in, charging). However, now i'm using Win10Pro and the smart charging feature isn't working. I've tried google, but to no avail. What worries me is, keeping the charger plugged in at 100% all the time will wear the battery out and plugging and unplugging all the time is just a nuisance!

How can I revert back to the previous state?  I've tried HP AC Power Control, but it's not made for Win 10 as it just unresponsive even after we apply and okay and frankly, it's just a poor software.  HP should learn from Sony or Dell, their Battery Care Function and Battery Life Extension are very much user friendly.

I would appreciate help in this matter. Thanks.
