I'm wondering if that is why the control center in my default installation did not have the battery icon. They may known there was an issue so they either removed it or left it out. I had to do the registry hack to make it show up. either way the task bar Icon should be more specific on what...

With Battery precision app This will turn to (charging) when it hits 50% and the color will change. With Reg edit fix I guess the "charging" is how you want to look at it. Even at 100% it says "Charging" so you can look at it as "maintaining a charge" or think it should say "Fully Charged...

I got the issue figured out but thanks for the input. Dragon Center does have calibration and I'll do that every 3 months as recommended by them. I also see yours is still showing charging 80% even though it isn't charging as you have it set to stop at 80%. So as said earlier it must be a bug.

Strange I went back and restored my registry and made sure those two reg entries were back and the icons are still showing even after a system reboot.

I deleted your two suggestions in the Registry and got the icons in the control center. Thanks! Now I have almost the opposite problem. lol When I hover over the battery icon in the control center it says "Charging 100%" I have my MSI Dragon Center set to charge only when below 50%. The...

My version of Windows 11 does not have those Icons in the Control Center. As said earlier in this thread you may be running an external UI enhancer.

Solved 1. MSI Dragon Center was set for "Best for Battery" only charges below 50% 2. Old battery was defective so it wouldn't charge even below 50% 3. New battery wouldn't charge because it was above 50%' 4. Changed Dragon Center to keep battery at 100% and it started to charge new battery. I...

I was wondering about that; I'll try and find one thanks for the information. I did try a new battery but that didn't work.

TY... Yes this is what I am use to windows displaying, Mine is not saying that it just says "Battery Status xx% available plugged in"

If so why does my battery not charge? It went down to zero so I purchased a new battery and it is also going down and not charging.

My main question is does windows 11 actually show anywhere that the battery is charging? Older versions would say "Charging" when hovered over the battery icon and the battery was low on charge. My windows 11 only shows the battery status. The laptop is running on the original charger. The...

I've done all that, nothing tells me if the battery is charging. TY for the input.

I have no icon in the control center, just the taskbar. How do I turn that on?

Is the taskbar icon for the battery supposed to say "Charging" when hovered over as in previous versions? Mine shows a plugged-in battery icon but the battery is slowly losing charge and never says it is charging.
