When the AC adapter is plugged in, it is normal to see battery usage go down. This is working as designed. The Intel XTU and AWCC can be used in conjunction. After you make any change in them, restart the Inspiron G7 17-7790. As far as uninstalling Dell software, it is your call to test which ones to uninstall. Be sure to restart the Inspiron G7 17-7790 after uninstalling any software, then retest. You can always reinstall the software.
