Windows 10 battery time remaining wrong

It’s affected by the current load on your PC and fluctuates dramatically when you’re connected to the internet, when multiple programs are running simultaneously, if you adjust screen brightness, and so on. Like we mentioned, the battery time was just an estimate. Why Did Microsoft Remove the Battery Information? Luckily, you can bring it back by making a few simple tweaks. So, what if ‘Remaining battery time’ is not showing in Windows 10? Is there a way to re-enable it? By default, Windows just shows the battery percentage with no estimate as to how long your battery will last. However, as is the norm with every major Windows update, some features are added while others are removed, like the remaining battery time indicator. All you needed to do was hover your mouse over the battery icon on your taskbar. Your laptop showed the estimated battery time remaining before you could recharge it again.
