Solved! Locate battery icon life

Solution
Laptops, that's true. And that's what I assumed you had.

Unless you have a UPS backup battery for your desktop there really isn't a battery that needs battery life monitoring.
For a desktop the only battery in your tower is the tiny RTC battery that probably will last the lifetime of the tower.

Thanks for the reply; however, when in Control Panel and clicking Power Options, nowhere can I find any reference to Advanced tab no matter where on screen or on which side of mouse I click. Worse, when I manage to have gotten to someplace (?) that gives the battery icon option...it's grayed out, so no go!

Can be more specific? Thank you!
