Hi @mani106,

Welcome to the HP Support Community!

Thanks for reaching out!

We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution.

Sorry for the inconvenience caused don’t worry let me help you.

To better understand the issue, could you please provide a few more details?

• How long you’ve been using this laptop and whether the battery issue developed gradually or suddenly.
• If the battery drains quickly even when the laptop is idle or only during heavy use.
• Whether you usually keep the laptop plugged in most of the time or frequently run it on battery power.

In the meantime, here are a few troubleshooting steps you can try:

• Check battery health in HP Support Assistant: Run the battery test again to confirm the diagnostic results.
• Update BIOS and drivers: Visit HP’s support page for your Pavilion 15s-fr2511tu and ensure BIOS, chipset, and power management drivers are up to date.
• Calibrate the battery: Fully charge the battery to 100%, then let it discharge completely until the laptop shuts down. Recharge it fully again to help recalibrate.
• Power settings: In Windows, go to Settings → System → Power & Battery and ensure you’re not on an aggressive performance mode that drains the battery faster.
• Check adapter and charging port: Make sure the charger is the original HP adapter .

I hope this helps.
