A:Answer I appreciate the response from HP here but this isn't completely true. The computer can be "tricked" into charging with a USBC charger by plugging in the AC smart plug, then plug in the USBC charger, then unplugging the smart plug. The computer charges just fine this way and 100W is more than enough in most cases. So please HP Support can you request that this SW issue be fixed to allow some power to be drawn from a lower wattage USB-C PD charger?
