I wasn't at home for the last 14 days and my laptop wasn't turned on during that time. Today I tried to turn it on but nothing happened. When I plugged in the charger, the laptop turned on immediately. I noticed that the battery percentage was 28%, which means that the laptop had enough power to turn on, even without the charger. I unplugged it, switched off and on again and it worked this time. Any idea what the problem might be? Thank you.
 
This means the battery is reaching the end of its lifespan. It will continue to work as long as you have the charger but the time it holds charge will shorten as tine goes on. You can do a full charge and discharge to improve its accuracy on when it is out of battery but the battery will die eventually.
