I repeatedly get battery charging problems. Status says Plugged In but the battery isn't charging.

I have checked the battery abd the Adapter using the Trouble Shooters and all is OK.  I have also deleted the Microsoft AC Adaptor and the Microsoft ACPl-Compliant Control Method Battery from the Device Manager, Shut Down, Unplugged then re-plugged the charging adaptor and started the Laptop This fixes the fault initially but later the fault reappears.

 

What is wrong?

As I said on my original post the fault is intermittent.  I've done all you suggest excl. removing the battery or updating the BIOS (my BIOS is a later version than any download).

So fa the problem has not reappeared.
