Hello, Ana. What I am going to suggest from here on is strictly unscientific.I could be way off. Step #1. I am sure you have already done these - check if your battery pack is securely connected, plug it to a different electrical outlet to check for faulty outlet.
Step #2. You said it's the update. Can you pinpoint which update ? If yes, uninstall it by : Control Panel> Classic View> Windows Update> click View Update History> click Installed Updates, from there pick out the alledged culprit, highlight it, click Uninstall.
After that, go backward " <--- " to windows update window, left panel click Change Settings, click the box that says " check for updates but let me choose -----". The update which you blame on will not be installed without your ok. Now see if your batter is recharging. ( Personally, I don't think so. ) Step #3. All else fails, a trip to the local computer repair shop. Keep me posted please.
