Dell Desktop Mode If you primarily use your computer with the power adapter connected, you can enable the desktop mode to moderate the extent to which your battery is charged. This reduces the number of charge/discharge cycles and improves battery life. Your Dell laptop automatically monitors the charging and discharging behavior of your battery, and if applicable, displays a message requesting you to enable Desktop Mode. NOTE: Dell desktop mode may not be supported on all computers. To enable or disable desktop mode: 1. Right-click the battery icon on the Windows notification area, and then click Dell Extended Battery Life Options. The Battery Meter dialog box is displayed. 2. Click the Desktop mode tab. 3. Click Enable or Disable based on your preference. 4. Click OK. NOTE: When desktop mode is enabled, the battery charges only between 50% - 100% percent of its capacity.
