I have a desktop computer.
Get-wmiobject win32_computersystem | select manufacturer,model
Manufacturer : Hewlett-Packard
Model : HP ProDesk 600 G1 SFF
For a while it would give me a icon in the systray stating that my battery was not present. haha good one Windows. I don't have a battery like that.
Some time recently it started reporting a full battery charge
also
Why is my Windows 10 reporting a full battery charge when no battery is present?
OS Name: Microsoft Windows 10 Pro
OS Version: 10.0.10586 N/A Build 10586
My Windows is out of date but I could not find anything relevant to this issue suggesting it was a bug.
2Use Device Manager (devmgmt.msc) to find any battery-like devices. – user1686 – 2018-01-09T14:20:07.373

3one note, update your Windows. you use version 1511 which his out of support, only Education and Enterprise editions of 1511 get updates. so update to 1703 or 1709 – magicandre1981 – 2018-01-09T16:31:52.103
prob because it targets mobile as well - so it was easier to just leave it there instead of determining if the hardware is truly mobile or not – NKCampbell – 2018-01-10T05:14:50.913
