I have a Dell E5450 that won't turn on after sitting about two weeks or more. The power button is completely unresponsive. Thing is, this does it even after its been fully charged, and then just sits unused for a while. It can sit about a week, and then still turn on just fine but any longer causes this issue.
When it doesn't turn on, you literally just have to plug in the power cable for a second until the charging indicator comes on, on the front. Once you do this, you can unplug it and it will turn on like normal, and once booted shows the battery percentage. In this video 60%, but normally its higher. Just haven't used it or charged it recently to full.

Is this some sort of safety lockout or normal behavior for this? You would think it would turn on anytime though.
