[Crappydustylaptop]

Hi i have a hp envy 13 ad013na and my original charger has broken but i have a replacement on the way and i realised it had a usb c port so then i plugged in a functioning wire and plug and it doesnt work any reason why?

 it says it has power delivery aswell so i presume i can use the usb-c port to charge my other devices as i have a usb-c to usb-c wire so  and i can charge my laptop via usb-c

Having a USB-C port doesn't mean it can charge from it, usually if there's a separate DC jack it can't.

Did it have the right voltage and wattage for the laptop, or was it just any wall adapter that you plugged into it?

If you want to charge and use your laptop with usb-c charger, it needs to be usb PD certified charger. Otherwise if you use a normal phone charger, turning the computer off and leaving it charging overnight should work, if your laptop supports very slow charging.
