My laptop battery charging will not go beyond 71%. The charging indicator will turn from ORANGE to WHITE . On the desktop the battery symbol would show 71% available (plugged in).
If charger is removed, the battery backup would not last for more than 15 min and laptop shutsdown suddently.

You can check the battery to some extent using Powershell built into Windows 10. as follows:
1) Press Windows key + X
2) Click Powershell in the menu
3) Type powercfg /batteryreport
This will generate a report and if you scroll down, you will see Design Capacity and Full Charge Capacity ratings. If the Full Charge Capacity is much less than 100% of the Design Capacity, it is faulty and needs to be replaced.
