PLS HELP!: Inspiron 3593 Bios update Issue

[Saiyan32]

I recently bought a intel i3 10th gen inspiron laptop. I want some doubts to be cleared off... 

 i never want to update bios...i usually avoid this for permanent issues......but I accidentally checked for updates of system firmware through windows and it detected a firmware update and went on to restart ...then i saw the dell bios update utility and was preparing to flash it..... but i was on battery power with battery level of 18-22% (dont remember exactly)....no adapter was connected

 so it did display warning message of low battery or something on red color and displayed that " firmware update failed" i got scared and thought my old version bios is somewhat corrupted.... but it restarted and bios working fine from my point of view

i was angry for this type behaviour of windows cause bios update is not just a regular software installation...

. so i went into the bios and disabled uefi capsule support in bios

Question is ...has this failed attempt of bios update somehow affected the old bios integrity? (though it is working fine) 

does dell laptop allow bios flash on battery power?

You will find out quite quickly if your bios isnt working, if your computer is starting you are fine

It likely "failed" becasue it detected no battery power and aborted.

 

If it caused issues you'd either get errors or not boot at all.

 

Should still do the update properly.

Yes...but i never wanted to update bios in the first place...i just never thought it would download a bios update from device manager like that..and went on to restart...bios is working fine however...

 

But it aborted for "no" battery or "on" battery?

Yeah...old bios is fine and functioning...

I just wanted to assure.. If the process touched the old bios in anyway before aborted?

If it started overwriting the bios and cut off, you will not have a working bios

 

It looks like it had a built in failsafe and aborted before it starting writing anything, so yuore safe

I was thinking exactly..

Cause bios update is never allowed on Battery power..(the reason of abortion as it did say low battery power or something and then aborted)   

I Didn't have ac adpater connected then
