Right-click on the battery icon in the task bar and select Desktop Battery Charge Mode.  See if the desktop mode is enabled.  Likely, it is and will only charge if the battery drops below 50%.

You can try perform a power drain, as well flash the BIOS to the latest version you find in the Dell support site.
