Dell VOSTRO 3460, Battery (Plugged in, not charging) Fix

by in 2

I intentionally used my laptop given from office until 10% battery last night to discharge battery. This morning when I switched on my laptop it show
 " Battery cannot be identified press F1 for skipped and F2 for setup"
 I skipped with F1 but when charging the battery, It showed Plugged in, not charging
It took me a while to google it for the fix. If it's happened to you also, It is dell being stupid, your battery is still ok.
 It is easy to fix, 

  1. power off your laptop 
  2. take the battery out 
  3. Press power button for 10 second 
  4. put the battery back. 
  5. switch it on. 
That's all.
