Battery dies when Laptop is shutdown extended period

[FrustrateLaptop]

I really dislike my HP Noteboock (17-ca1002cy)

I treat it to a full 100% charge, do a shutdown.

Place it in its bag for 2-4 weeks.

When I try to start it up, the battery has been drained to less than 5%.

Everything else works as expected. Why has HP made my laptop tethered like a desktop?

I've never had this problem with my other laptops. It makes me really, really like my Dell laptop.

Have tried a number of things suggested on-line to try to make sure the battery is not in demand, system fully shutdown, etc.

I wish I could just unplug the battery in between charges.

Very frustrated.
