Notebook will not charge while in use but charges on standby and when off. Any help appreciated. Thanks

Thank you for joining HP Forums. 

I'll be glad to help you 🙂 

As I understand there's an issue with charging,

No worries, as I'll be glad to help you, that said, I'll need a few more details to dissect your concern & provide an accurate solution: 

Did you reset the device to release any excessive static from the PC?

While you respond to that, here's what I recommend you do:

• Having your laptop running and plugged in, let the battery die at which time the screen will turn off.
• Press the On/Off button until the laptop powers completely OFF.  Be sure to leave it plugged in.
• Wait a few minutes.  You will notice that an orange light will turn on where the adaptor plugs into the laptop.
• Once this happens, wait a couple more minutes. 
• Finally, power up your laptop.  You will notice that the power meter on the task bar will now read "Plugged In. Charging".

Let me know how that pans out

I hope you have a good day ahead,

And Feel free to ask any other queries as  well,

Thanks I will try the above! No I haven't reset the device to release static, is there a link to this procedure?

Thank you for responding,

It's great to have you back 😉

The steps I had suggested are a part of the hard reset I had mentioned,

That said, I also recommend you reinstall the battery drivers:

• Unplug the charge and use the laptop until the battery drains to 15%. 
• Turn off the laptop and turn it back on after 30mins. 
• Reinstalled Microsoft ACPI-Compliant Control Method Battery under device manager, 
• Restart the computer and the issue should be fixed.

If the issue persists, please update the BIOS and Chipset drivers: Click here to find and install
