@Titas7, Welcome to HP Support Community. 

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you. 
 

It sounds really frustrating to have your HP Pavilion 14-ce3065tu battery drain from 100% to 0% in just 2 minutes. Based on the latest guidance from HP and Windows 11 support communities, here are some urgent steps you can take to diagnose and potentially fix the issue:

Check Battery Health

• Open Command Prompt as Administrator.
• Run this command:

  powercfg /batteryreport

• This generates a battery report at: C:\Users\<YourUsername>\battery-report.html. Open it and check:
  • Design Capacity vs Full Charge Capacity.
  • If Full Charge Capacity is drastically lower, your battery may be physically degraded.

Update BIOS and Drivers

• Go to HP Support Assistant and install it.
• Use it to:
  • Update BIOS.
  • Update chipset and battery-related drivers.
• Also, run Windows Update:
  Settings > Windows Update > Check for updates.

Reset Battery Drivers

• Open Device Manager.
• Expand Batteries.
• Right-click on:
  • Microsoft AC Adapter
  • Microsoft ACPI-Compliant Control Method Battery
• Choose Uninstall device for both.
• Restart your laptop. Windows will reinstall them automatically.

Calibrate the Battery

• Charge to 100%.
• Let it discharge completely until the laptop shuts down.
• Leave it off for 5+ hours.
• Charge it back to 100% without interruption.

Power Settings Optimization

• Go to Settings > System > Power & battery.
• Set Power Mode to Best power efficiency.
• Enable Battery Saver.
• Disable background apps:
  Settings > Apps > Installed apps > Background apps.

Check for Malware or Background Processes

• Open Task Manager (Ctrl + Shift + Esc).
• Look for high CPU or disk usage apps.
• Run a full scan using Windows Defender or a trusted antivirus. 

I hope this helps. 

Take care and have a good day.
