@razak_ghani94,

Welcome to the HP Forums!

It is a great way to engage, post questions and find resolutions by working with specialists in the HP community.

I reviewed your post and I understand that the battery is not getting charged when the computer is powered on.

I’d love to help!

Follow below steps to fix this issue.

Reinstalled Microsoft ACPI-Compliant Control Method Battery under device manager.

Here is how you do it.

Step 1: Click the Windows “Start” button and right-click “Computer.”

Step 2: Click “Manage,” then “Device Manager.”

Step 3: Click the “Batteries” section. A list of devices will appear.

Step 4: Right-click the “Microsoft ACPI-Compliant Control Method Battery” device and click “Uninstall.”

Step 5: Click the “Action” menu item and “Scan for Hardware Changes” to reinstall the driver.

Restart the computer and the issue should be fixed.

If the issue persists, I recommend you update the bios the from the below link and test.

I am at wits end with this problem.  The battery tests fine, and charges when turned off, but when turned on it says "plugged in, not charging."  I have tried every order of delete, battery driver, unplug laptop, unplug battery,  hold in power button, that I have found online to solve this problem.  I have reset win 10 on the machine.  I have gone onto HP's site and downloaded and reinstalled the Bios. Help!!  Any ideas, other than what I have tried?  This HP Envy might be the death of me.

I had the same issue, and fixed it this morning. Look at the first reply to the question below, the reply from user KNRK.
