Windows 7 Battery Problem Fix

Is Windows 7 causing battery problems in your laptop?

Software Candy makes it easy for you to work around these problems with Win7BatteryFix.

Simply download and install Win7BatteryFix and you may be able to get relief from a problem reported recently by so many users.

What is the "Windows 7 Battery Problems" and what does Win7BatteryFix do?

Microsoft has a support forum with a thread dedicated to the "consider replacing your battery" error in Windows 7. That thread started in June 2009, and it's still going strong...  Users' complaints range from reporting decreased battery life when running Windows 7 (compared to Windows XP), while others believe Windows 7 has actually reduced their battery's capacity.

On one hand, Microsoft said it is looking into these problems, claiming a week later that the reported problems don't lie within Windows 7.

On the other hand, users dispute Microsoft's explanation of the Windows 7 battery problems, as reported in this news article. Interestingly, in March 2010 Microsoft published a Knowledge Base article that points to BIOS updates LG laptops that will fix false “battery is low” reports.

If your laptop is not LG and you are experiencing the problems described above, you may be interested in a "fix", suggested by Microsoft MVPs and other users. This is not purely a fix but rather a workaround:

If you feel uncomfortable, however, with command line syntax in an "elevated command console" (especially when the suggestion doesn't include instructions how to undo the fix if needed), Software Candy's Win7BatteryFix may be the right solution for you:

With a few clicks wizard, Win7BatteryFix will automatically install this workaround for your current power scheme. If at some point you want to undo this fix, Win7BatteryFix will also automatically uninstall it for your current power scheme.

Note : In the current version of Win7BatteryFix you need to make sure that the current power scheme before uninstalling this product is the same power scheme that was current when you installed it. Future versions may have the ability to take care of this for you automatically.

Also note that by making this convenient tool available to you, Software Candy doesn't necessarily contradict Microsoft's statements nor does Software Candy claim to be solving all types of battery problems. Win7BatteryFix merely serves as a user-friendly wrapper around the above described elevated command.

As with all Software Candy products, Win7BatteryFix is completely free of any viruses or spyware (digitally signed for authenticity and integrity) and is well tested for its advertised features.
