@lk90 

There are way too many "hp pavilion X360 " models for me to guess the age of your computer.

If the battery is a "no longer new", the maximum charge is likely less than when the computer was purchased.  For example, if you purchased the computer in early 2018, the battery is now over a year old and may no longer charge to 100%.    At this writing, the behavior is considered "normal".  (Future battery technology may render that statement inaccurate.)

If you like, consider the "Calibration" procedure.

Testing and Calibrating the Battery (Windows 10)   

Unrelated Comment and meant only to illustrate the point:

I have a Zbook 17 G3.  At this writing, the workstation is about three years old (and a few months) - the maximum charge on the battery is (and has been for a couple of years) between 94-95%.

Battery having trouble?

• If the “not charging” issue is (only) apparent when the system is running hot (or near that point), the battery and charge system are likely overheated as well – the charge system will resume operation when the computer cools down. Short Version:  An overheated battery / computer / charging-system will not charge the battery – this is normal behavior.
• The battery might be OK and just need calibration (balance / set).

The steps to check / calibrate / replace the battery are included in this document:
