Dell XPS 15 7590 - USB-C not charging
Hi DELL team, I'm trying to use the USB-C port to charge the laptop with a PD laptop charger but it doesn't work.
I can use the barrel charger but I would like to be able to use the USB-C as well for convenience.
Is there some reason that it doesn't work by default?
Thank you!

Only the Thunderbolt port accepts power -- the two USB-C ports do not. And since this system needs a 130W power adapter (where a non-Dell USB-C charger will deliver 65W max) if it does work, it'll be slow going charging and the system will not run at full speed.
