laptop battery question

[packersfan036]

I have a Lenovo y40-80 and the battery seems to be draining a little when the laptop is shut down for a while with the power cord unplugged . I heard that if fast start up in windows is activated that will cause it. I'm using windows 8.1

Hi,

Here are some troubleshooting steps that may help.
- First is to disable the fast startup feature of Windows 8 or 10 and see if the same problem will persist.

- If it will still not work, do a battery calibration and see if the same problem will persist or not.
