AFAIK a new battery + entering the Bitlocker recovery key fixed the problems.
Usually these batteries hold for years.
I have a 15+ year old laptop where I had to replace the battery after ~10 years.
However the affected laptops are now a few years old, aren’t designed properly (I heard weird stuff happening like adding additional RAM somehow causes the display to fail) and somehow just have a CR2016 battery installed, not a bigger CR2032.
And yes these are buisness-laptops designed for companies -.-
See there’s your problem: you think they are business laptops but actually they might actually be “business” laptops. What’s the difference? Well one is made to actually fulfill the needs so the company can extract the most work out of them, the other is made to sound awesome to unknowing managers and sales people, think all those laptops with “AI” plastered all over the marketing. The only thing those two variants have in common is that you pay out of your nose for them.
