This tutorial will show you how to turn on or off show notification if this PC is charging slowly over USB for your account in Windows 11.
If you charge your PC battery over USB, you might get a notification that says your PC is charging slowly.
This may happen if you’re using a charger that didn’t come with your device.
Starting with Windows 11 build 25252, Microsoft updated the battery icon’s tooltip to let you know if your device is charging slowly.
Starting with Windows 11 build 26052 (Canary and Dev), Microsoft adjusted the text in the notification when a PC detects a slow charger.
