Question My laptop has a strange problem

[afratafri202]

Hi everyone!
So my laptop is crazy.The problem is 3 days ago i turned my laptop on,it didn't.I plugged in the ac adapter and turned it on.The battery was 3% so i left it to charge.
After like 20min i came back and saw the battery said 3%.I was like WHAT?
Then i noticed it said 3% (plugged in,not charging).
I thought this was a bug and pulled out the adapter.The laptop suddenly turned off(probably because it's supposed to shutdown intantly if less than 7%).
Left if for a couple dozen of hours and again tried to charge it.Now it said 5% available (plugged in, not charging).
Then i finally went for the web and googled this problem.Found some fixes like hard reset,reseating the battery,uninstalling and reinstalling the battery drivers,updated the bios etc.Well nothing worked.
Now i left it for 2 days.Now when i turned on the laptop now it says 6% not charging.
This is strange.Is it suppose to charge in 2months without plugging in the ac adapter.i tried other adapters still didn't work.
Any help would be appreciated.
I also reinstalled windows in case some windows update was messing up.
The laptop is
HP Pavillion 15 ab249ne Energy Star
i7 6500u 2.5Ghz
8gb ddr3 ram
500gb 5400rpm hdd
gt 940m 2gb gddr3
intel hd graphics 520
and a 41Wh 4cell lithium ion battery

Likely either the charge controller, power adapter, or battery is shot.

Since you tried other adapters I would suggest that the battery needs to be replaced.

Well why is it saying different percentages at different times

Battery might be failing.

Charge % arent always accurate. My phone baytery could go to 0 but then turn back on later with 20%, and then die again. Its happpend to me many times.

Well it's mfg date is 31 Dec 2015
So maybe 3 years are enough to kill a battery

I have seen it happen if the laptop battery is used a lot.
There are a lot of factors that can contribute to a worn out battery. You can usualky order a replacement from your manufacturers website.

It depends on your usage.

Known batteries parameters to go by are cycle count and health, and whether this is OEM or third party battery.

When battery charging readings erratic, 98% chance battery worn/dying. Known behavior, not strange at all.
