Hey there! @Ahelmburg, Thanks for stopping by the HP Support Forums!
I understand you have issues powering on your laptop.
Don't worry I'd like to help you out.
Did you make any hardware or software changes on your PC?
Have you tried charging your laptop using a different adapter?
Do you see any lights blinking on your laptop?
Please provide the product number of your PC to assist you better.
As you mentioned you have issues powering on your laptop.
Try plugging the adapter into a different wall outlet and check if it helps.
Please try the steps recommended below.
To perform a power reset on a laptop with a sealed or non-removable battery, use the following steps:
Turn off the computer.
Remove the computer from any port replicator or docking station.
Disconnect all external connected peripheral devices such as USB storage devices, external displays, and printers.
Unplug the AC adapter from the computer.
For most laptops, press and hold the Power button for 15 seconds to reset.
Plug the AC adapter back into the laptop computer, but do not connect any of the peripheral devices.
Press the Power button to turn on the computer.
If a startup menu opens, use the arrow keys to select Start Windows Normally, and then press the Enter key.
After Windows opens, reconnect each peripheral device that was disconnected, one device at a time, until all devices are reconnected.
Your laptop has been reset. After a power reset, it is a good idea to run Windows Update and HP Support Assistant to update all device drivers. See Updating Drivers and Software with Windows Update (Windows 10, 😎 and Using HP Support Assistant (Windows 10, 8, 7) for more information.

i typically go on my laptop every night and one night i went to bed and in the morning (which was a weekend) i went to go on my laptop and it wouldn’t turn on. the power light was on and the caps lock button was flashing. it has done this 2 times now and i have tried holding the power button for 15 seconds but when i try to turn it on the same thing happens. i have an hp stream laptop so i can’t take my battery out.
