Is there a way to check battery health in Windows 10? How to troubleshoot laptop battery drain issues? There is a hidden tool available in Windows 10\/8 that can examine your laptop’s battery usage \/ health, and give you a detailed report for energy efficiency and battery life problems.<\/p>\n

Part 1: Generate a Battery Report<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Press the Windows key + X to open the Power User menu, then select the “Command Prompt (Admin)<\/strong>” option.<\/li>\n
  2. At the elevated Command Prompt, type the following command line and press Enter:
    \npowercfg \/batteryreport \/output \"C:\\battery_report.html\"<\/code><\/p>\n

    \"generate-battery-report\"<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  3. It will generate a report file named battery_report.html<\/em> under the root path of C: drive. Double-click on it to review the report in your default browser e.g. Microsoft Edge, Chrome or Firefox.<\/li>\n
  4. The most important details in the battery report are the Design Capacity<\/strong>, Full Charge Capacity<\/strong> and Battery capacity history<\/strong>. If you have a new laptop or tablet, it may actually have a higher current Full Charge Capacity than its Design Capacity. That number will decrease over time as the battery chemistry changes.\n

    \"battery-report\"<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  5. Under the “Battery capacity history<\/strong>” section, you can see how your battery’s full charge capacity gradually decreased over time compared to its design capacity. If you see a sudden drop, there’s probably a problem with your battery.<\/li>\n

    \"battery-capacity-history\"<\/p>\n<\/ol>\n

    Part 2: Generate a Power Efficiency Diagnostic Report<\/strong><\/p>\n

    The Power Efficiency Diagnostics will analyze your system for common energy efficiency and battery life problems, and report any errors, warnings, and informational details found.<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Press the Windows key + X to open the Power User menu, then select the “Command Prompt (Admin)<\/strong>” option.<\/li>\n
    2. At the elevated Command Prompt, type the following command line and press Enter:
      \npowercfg \/energy \/output \"C:\\energy_report.html\"<\/code><\/p>\n

      \"generate-energy-report\"<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    3. The program will analyze your computer for 60 seconds then produce an HTML report in the root path of C: drive. When it’s done tracing, you’ll see a generated report named engery-report.html<\/em>, which shows you everything that’s going on with your power configuration, and gives you some ideas as to what prevents your laptop from automatically entering sleep.\n
