HP ENVY x360 - 15m-dr1011dx
Microsoft Windows 11

I had Best Buy install a new battery in my HP ENVY x360 Laptop.  The new battery is charging and Windows indicates that it is ok and charging to 100%.  However, HP Support Assistant indicates in red that the battery needs to be replaced!

I reinstalled the battery driver and I deleted and reinstalled HP Support Assistant and still it shows in red that the battery needs to be replaced!

Any suggestions would be appreciated - except I'm not going to take the battery out and replace it.

Thanks for any help.
