Η Microsoft και η HP κυκλοφόρησαν μια νέα ενημέρωση που απευθύνεται σε laptop της HP που τρέχουν Windows 10. Η νέα ενημέρωση ενεργοποιεί μία νέα δυνατότητα chargingher battery, without users needing to make BIOS changes.
With the update KB4583263 of Windows 10, Microsoft reports that HP wants to improve the performance of your laptop battery by activating a new charging algorithm. This update is currently only available on HP laptops. You can download and install it from the "Optional Updates" area in the Settings application.
When you install this update, HP says it will enable a mode called "HP Battery Health Manager“. This feature is a BIOS level setting available on most HP devices and is supposed to improve your device's battery life, but is currently disabled by default in some configurations.
Η HP also states that this new update will reduce your battery exposure to high charging. In other words, HP Battery Health Manager will optimize battery charging behavior based on usage or charging standards. The feature is based on HP's new algorithm and is also designed to increase your battery life.
It is worth noting that if your device does not support HP Battery Health Manager, no changes will be made, even if you install Windows Update. Also, remember that Windows Update does not make changes to the BIOS.
If you don't apply the update to a supported device, HP says it could lead to battery swelling and chemical aging in lithium ion batteries.
