Is there any software for Windows that could limit charging of the battery on laptop to a desired percentage in order o extend its life?

I have only seen it on Lenovo Laptops, although never really looked for it and used to at least come with the IBM\Lenovo Laptop's were you can tell it 90% is max charge which i believe is what your on about ?.

There is no consensus suggesting such restrictions do any good with today's batteries. The "marketing" hype behind it is to prevent the battery from over-heating or worse, over-charging - events that may indeed shorted battery life. But notebook charging/monitoring circuits are not going to let a battery overcharge. And thermal protection devices are going to prevent over-heating. What may seem too warm for us is not necessarily too hot for the battery.Is there any software for Windows that could limit charging of the battery on laptop to a desired percentage in order o extend its life?

It's not even about overcharging because it's impossible.

I am not disputing this. What I am saying (and should have made clear above) is there is no real consensus whether using such features actually extends the usable life expectancy of the batteries to any significant degree, or not.Over time this builds up, and this is the main cause for cell degradation as that layer of lithium atoms gets thicker.

Some laptops have this feature in BIOS. It's usually called "battery saver", or "battery life extension".Is there any software for Windows that could limit charging of the battery on laptop to a desired percentage in order o extend its life?

And that's pretty hard to do - in fact, it typically requires a fault - like a shorted component to allow the battery to fully discharge. And if you had a shorted component in the battery or the notebook's charging circuit, you likely could never get a full charge any way. It is more likely the short (which would cause excess - perhaps excessive - current) would result in the battery failing to charge at all. Or worse, catching fire.The only thing that kills lithium cells for sure, is a full discharge.
