Hi everybody,
i have bought a HP Victus 16 laptop yesterday for my son's birthday.
Windows 10 was installed. I have upgrade to Windows 11.
I don't understand why the BATTERY STATUS is till displayed 99 percent. After 3 hours on battery, 99 percent.
Even if i plug the charger. No errors messages displayed.
THANKS for your HELPS.

Hello @H8C1
Welcome !
- Click on the Start Button
- Type "Device Manager" in the start search box & open the Device Manager
- Look for Batteries and expand it by click on the + symbol on the left
- Right Click on "Microsoft ACPI Compliant Control Method Battery" & uninstall
- This Battery driver should get reinstalled automatically when you restart the Notebook again
- Please RESTART the Notebook -> here is how to do it in Windows 10 (it is very similar in Windows 11) >> https://www.digitalcitizen.life/7-ways-shut-down-or-restart-windows-10-pc-or-device
- Eventually, press and hold the Power-ON Button for full 1 Minute
- Once you start back your computer, ensure your PC is online (connected to the Internet)
- Go to Control Panel -> Device Manager
- Find the "Microsoft ACPI Compliant Control Method Battery" under batteries section
- Right click it and choose "Update Driver Software"
- Use the option to "Search automatically for updated driver" and use the online option / Windows Update
- Restart the PC
If the issue persists:
1. Try updating BIOS on your PC and check if it helps => https://support.hp.com/ie-en/document/c00042629
2. Ensure your Windows 11 is up to date
3. Ensure your drivers are up to date - use HP Support Assistant => https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/ish_3152513-2896757-16
Let me know how it goes. Thanks
