Hi @LisonFan,

Unfortunately, we can not see any irregularities in your debug file. If possible, please generate a new debug file directly after the charge limit changes to 100%. Is it possible that you used the Top Up or Right Click feature accidentally to change the charge limit to 100%? You can read more about these features on our website.

Best, Matthias

I probably know the reason. I just found out that right-clicking on AlDente in the menubar changes the charging limit.

Can a configuration option be added in settings? It should allow disabling this feature.

Hi @LisonFan,

Yes, this might be the reason, and the good news with the next update, you will be able to disable the Right Click setting.

Also, there is already an issue about this open here #1037. Therefore, I will close this issue and give updates in the other one.
