Laptop Battery Icon Displaying a "!" (Please Help)

[SamDiCola]

Hey everyone!

 

I was wondering if I could get some help.

 

I am using a Lenovo Legion 5 running Windows 11 for reference.

 

My battery icon is always displaying a "!" when plugged in.

 

It does not tell me the reason why there is a problem. I am using the included charging brick to charge the laptop.

 

I read when doing a google search that this could mean not enough power is being delivered to the laptop which can decrease performance, but I am using the included charging brick so this shouldn't be an issue.

 

I noticed it the first time when I had it plugged into the dock via USB-C with power delivery, but then also plugged in the normal charger to see if it went away, and it didnt.

 

So I then unplugged the dock and just used the charger, and it didn't change anything. I have also tried a restart.

 

Does anyone know what this could mean or how I can fix it? Why doesn't Windows display the problem alongside the icon?

 

Any help is appreciated.

 

Thank you!
