Hello everyone! I have battery drain after shut down. I disabled fast boot in bios and in Windows 11. I enabled hp maximaze battery health in bios menu. Is there a need to enable Power Control in BIOS? As far as I can see it drains about 15 percent during night. I disconnect the ac dc adapter when I am not using the laptop. When the ac dc is connected it charges to 100 percent. That problems was noticed in Windows 10 too. I made battery test by the HP software and it says the the battery health is normal and there are no issues. Is it possible that the problem is because of some intel drivers or something like that?
