When windows tells you your battery status is "plugged in, not charging" this means that the machine is running on external power, and is not currently charging the battery. Most often, this is because the battery is already fully charged and the machine has stopped charging it as many laptop batteries can be damaged by over-charging. This message may also be displayed when the battery is missing or malfunctioning in some way.i had th
when it malfunctions the charger is broken on the inside put it back. i had the same problem and i tried everything then i took it to a shop which checked it and said it was broken on the inside and they were right so i opened the wire up and put it back together then it started working again. this happens by taking your charger everywhere you go and twisting of the wire
If their is an software on the laptop like battery life extender remove it to fix the problem they don't make a difference anyway other than they make it slower
The battery might have gone bad. Also try to remove the battery and reinstall it again, bad contacts can cause it to. The power adapter has to be checked to. You will have to use a multimeter to check the voltage and the current. You need to measure both and compare with values written on the power adapter itself.
Plugged in not charging this is the problem you get when the laptop battery is over heated or not functioning properly. I would recommend to practice safe battery charging tips.
And to solve that error "plugged in not charging", remove the battery once, keep it aside for at-least 20 - 30 minutes and re-insert it. Now it should work. Check out the link attached for pretty clear step by step guidance and some tips you should follow to avoid this error in future.
This is something quite common with Dell laptop - the problem is your charger. It seems that microcontroller or wiring in your charger is defective. I am not entirely sure as to why the charger can provide power and not charge but it is probably something to do with Dell design.
Most likely, you will have to buy another Dell charger online. Remember not to buy a universal charger as the "plugged in, not charging" problem will also occur.
i would recommend buying laptop chargers from Topmic.com because they offer lifetime warranty and free shipping to all laptop chargers at a good price. I think that with the benefits of warranty and shipping, it is definitely worth it to buy chargers from them.
