Not sure why you need software on your computer in order to charge some batteries. Maybe to save your laptop battery if it’s not plugged into an AC outlet?

Probably using computer to control charging rate and rejuvenating function like some high end battery chargers.
There are some pulsing functions that can "supposedly" rejuvenate failing batteries.

My laptop has a BIOS setting that instructs the computer whether to charge (supply power) the USB port if on battery or not.
