Try a reset which is remove the battery and unplug the adapter then press and hold down the power button for 30 seconds. Then reconnect everything and try to boot again.
I tried starting my Inspiron 3565 today after having it off for 9 months. I want to do a Windows 10 Update. It is hardware original from 2018. Using your method, mine is still DOA. Is it the battery?

Also the coin cell battery should be replaced whenever a computer is not used for a long time.

If the system will power up and run on AC power without the battery connected, yes. If it will not, there's more than just the battery at fault.
