Before I had a laptop to which I could remove the battery and so I could work always connected directly to the power, and when I had to move simply connect the battery.
This way the battery did not decrease its useful life too much. Now I have a laptop Acer switch 3 that the battery is inside, so I can not perform the old procedure. 
I want to know if it is possible to stop charging the battery while my new laptop is connected to the power. Thank you

    Check that you have the latest versions of application drivers installed for your machine which might give you some power management control over battery charging behavior. https://www.acer.com/ac/en/US/content/drivers   Jack E

    Hello JackE. 
    I already saw the latest versions of the drivers that you told me, but I would not know which one to download for the battery control. You recomend to download all of them?

    There shouldn't be that many app drivers to try. Maybe one or two. What is your full model number so I can see what's available. SW3xx-xxx? Jack E/NJ
