I bought a new genuine HP laptop battery (HS04) for my Notebook 15-ay542tu. I charged the new battery for almost 3 hours, but it got stuck at 85% and after i restarted my laptop for 2 or 3 times, updated the bios, reinstalled the battery drivers and used the UEFI diagnostic tool it increased to 90% then again got stuck. If you unplug the adapter charger the laptop shuts down immediately.
Windows Specifications:
- Windows 10 Pro
- 1909
- 18363.1171
These are my laptop details.

Your description is of a bad battery.
I do hope you purchased one with a one year warranty.
Contact the vendor and request an RMA for a replacement unit.

How do you ascertain that? A new battery should charge to 100%, otherwise there is a problem.
