battery draining issue after installaiton of windows 11
Hey there! I have a Dell Inspiron 5502 which automatically got updated to windows 11 on 8th September, 2021. After a week I noticed that my laptop which gave me around 6-12 hours of backup gave only 2 hours of backup, I feared that my battery must have got damaged or there must be a hardware issue, later i just reverted back to windows 10 and everything is normal now!
I'm so happy now because my laptop is now giving me 6 - 12 hours of battery backup.
The probable solution for you may be to just revert back to windows 10 ASAP!
Windows 11 has many bugs and issues to be fixed it is recommended to revert back to Windows 10.
- I have HP ELITEBOOK PRO WINDOWS 10 upgraded to 11 today, usually it's a OS with long hours of battery life duration and after upgrade I noticed sharp reduction in battery life. I guess Microsoft should do something about this issue. very quickly Meanwhile is ''Battery status for instance, X% available (Plugged in)'' a healthy performance while on AC? In essence, it's charging properly?
Hi thanks, we are aware that Windows 11 roll out few months ago, Microsoft newer version life cycle is five years and fully deprecated after a decade, rolling back to the older version would amount to temporary measure, except the user wish to keep the older version of Windows 10, which will still be updated with this newer version, but for a limited year(s) trust Microsoft, utilizing the free windows upgrade offered by Microsoft is a great deal, if not for the draining battery issue encountered, which I hope will be corrected based on users complaints.
- I had the same issue.......I downgraded to windows 10 it fixed the problem.
Hello, thanks. I have reconsidered your suggestion by rolling back to Windows 10, to solve the draining battery problem and that has restored the battery back to normal. It is a portable PC, I have used barely three years, which I usually get the battery charged only once a day, except I overused the system, then I can charge twice that day. Even when I used it to watch NETFLIX the battery life cycle is always particularly good, then after upgrade to Windows 11, which sucks life out of the battery.
