    Remove the charger. Then re-insert, press and hold a paperclip into the battery reset pinhole on the bottom for about 30 seconds. Then plug the charger back in. Try to turn it on again. Jack E/NJ

    Its clearly a systemic bug in the Acer Spin 3.  I have two of these and they both have stopped powering on without notice or reason.  Eventually it does power on but usually after a day of sitting.  NO laptop should behave this way.  I would NOT recommend this laptop to anyone

    Sounds like the batteries have either lost most of their capacity or are being stored unplugged in fast boot mode for long periods of time. When they are able to boot, try this. Go to the elevated command prompt.  Enter 'powercfg /batteryreport'. Then return to the desktop. Open file explorer. Then search for' battery-report.html' in the c:\windows\system32\ sub-folder. Double-click to open it in the browser. Post screenshot of the first part of the report if possible that compares design full charge capacity with its remaining full charge capacity. Jack E/NJ
