Hi would someone please be able to help. Something very odd has happened to my HP Pavilion Aero 13. Charging from either the usb-c or standard HP AC barrel port has always worked just fine for me until today. Now the barrel port does not charge my laptop when I plug it in nor does the little led battery light turn on. However, very oddly, if I first plug in my usb c charger and then subsequently put in my ac barrel charger and then unplug the usb c charger, the laptop charges and the led light next to the ac barrel charger port remains on. that makes me think that there's no issue with the charger itself as it still can charge, but only if plugged in with the specific above sequence. any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Have tried that as well and updated but still not working sadly. Any other suggestions?

Enter the BIOS and load the default values, when in the BIOS press the F9 key then exit and press the F10 key to save the changes,

Sorry not quite sure I understand what you mean. I went onto the hp page and have downloaded the most recent bios which has been installed. How do I open it and enter values

HP Recommended

You must enter the BIOS, at power on press the F10 key several times, then press F9 to load the defaults and then F10 to save and exit the BIOS.

How do I find the bios? When I download from the hp site it just gives me the update, not actual details
