Battery not detected after Windows 10 upgrade

keness47

Upgraded my Aspire 5738 from Win 7 to Win 10. After upgrade, no battery was detected by the laptop. I like Win 10, but if no solution is found, I'll neeed to roll back to Win 7 pretty soon, or I'll be stuck with a laptop that's permanently turned into a desktop.

 

I've tried the old standby (unplugging everything, holding down power button, then rebooting, then adding back battery), but doesn't work. Anybody have any other ideas / suggestions /directions?

 

Thanks!

Please check if you can do a battery driver reset. Here are the steps: Go to the devise manager. Press and hold the windows key with your left hand and then tap on the letter X key with your right hand. Then select devise manager from the list. Right click on Microsoft ACPI-Compliant control method battery and chose uninstall. Click on ACtion tab on top of the window and chose scan for hardware changes. Let us know if you notice any change after following the above steps. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++If i was helpful, a KUDOS is appreciate and remember to mark "Accept as Solution", the post that solved your problem.

Thanks, that cleared it up immediately and the battery was detected again. I had to do a quick hard-power reset because it was "plugged in, not charging" but now it's operating normally on battery. Thank you so much!

I tried that and it shut my computer off.  When it restarted, the device had reinstalled.
