Hello Sevenforums!
I have used the search function but haven't been able to find a useful answer to my problem, so i'm taking my chances;
The problem is occurring on my Lenovo G580 Laptop - originally with Windows 7 preinstalled and Lenovo Solutions center, which had a setting to increase the battery lungevity by only charging it to 50% and then running directly off the power cord from there.
The problem however, is that in the mean time i've installed a new HDD because the old one broke down, and am now stuck with this battery setting and no knowledge of how to disable it again. I have tried to reinstall the Lenovo Software on the Windows 10 installation, but have either found a bad installer or had problems running the program, since i am not able to use and/or access said battery management settings, depending on my method of installation.
Is there some BIOS/Windows setting or anything else i can use to reverse the battery saver mode?
Sincerely; Nicklas Tegewaldt
