If I set MSI Center to make the laptop only charge until 60% but sometimes it charges until 58%/59% or 61%/62% and even after removing the partition where MSI Center is installed the laptop still charges until 60% (or close). How is this possible? Also, should I keep this setting or use the one that charges the battery until 80% or are these settings redundant, nowadays (at least)?

The utility you used to set these levels is probably just a front end for changing settings in the Bios.
So check your Bios to see if you can change those entries manually.

Already did, including the hidden settings after using a keyboard combo, and they don't show up there.

Then I don't know what to suggest.
Perhaps you could get some guidance by searching the MSI support site and/or any user forums they might host.


Best of luck,
Denis

I guess it's stored in the NVRAM?
