To turn off Smart Charging in Windows 11, follow these general steps:

  1. Open Windows Settings.
  2. Go to System > Power & battery.
  3. Look for a Smart Charging or Battery Health Charging option.
  4. Toggle off or disable the Smart Charging feature.

If you do not see this option in Windows Settings, Smart Charging might be controlled by your laptop's manufacturer software or firmware. In this case, you should:

  • Use the laptop manufacturer's app (e.g., MyASUS, Samsung Settings, Surface app) to disable Smart Charging.
  • If the option is not available in software, check the BIOS/UEFI settings on your PC to disable Smart Charging.
  • You can also try disabling Smart Charging related devices in Device Manager under System Devices.

For example, on an ASUS laptop, you can disable Battery Care Mode in the MyASUS app. On a Microsoft Surface device, you can pause Smart Charging temporarily in the Surface app. On Samsung devices, you can disable Battery Life Extender in Samsung Settings. Windows 11 does not have a direct toggle in the default settings app for all devices because Smart Charging is often an OEM feature managed outside of Windows settings. If you provide the brand of your laptop, more specific instructions can be given.
