    once a battery hits 100% charge it will stop charging until the voltage falls below a certain level.... however need to ensure that your laptop does not overheat!:eek:

    Unless you want to short your battery life
    Don't charge to 100% ... For long period of time
    Set it to 80% or 60% using msi app
    And that it ..

    Is not that like asking the same question 10 times the valid answer changes.

    We discussed extensively the matter, no need to drag it further

    Why does MSI Center make the laptop charge until 58%/59% or 61%/62% when I set it to charge it until 60% when the battery is below 50%?

    You have already been given so much wisdom that there is nothing left to say and as you can see, looks like you don't want any answers.
    OK. So let's say one more time - no battery ever wants to be empty or half full. So, if your battery is not charging 100% and it happens regularly, then something is very wrong.
    Perhaps you should still contact a specialist in the relevant field.

    Not about the main subject. I set it to charge until 60% when the battery is below 50% and lately it's only charging until 50 something %.

    Then set it to 70% so it charges to 60%.

    Problem solved.:schmorch:

    I can't set it to 70% and that doesn't answer my question.

    Seriously what answer can you reasonably expect other than jokes?

    It's a program written by humans, and each human has it's own idea of ow something should work.

    The only one that can give you an answer is the coder who wrote that utility

    Via msi app ... And it will work better

    There is no fault. There is something that don't work like your nitpicking expected.

    Yes, "nitpicking", especially when it's below 50% now.

    EDIT: I'll remove MSI Center since after installing it and logging into my user account, Windows always states it's installing updates after restarting or turning off the laptop. I'll only install it to change its setting to make the laptop's battery charge until 60% when it's below 50% since the setting is reset every time I update the BIOS.

    EDIT 2: I'm not having the previous issue so I'll install it and keep if installed.
