"Mickey Mouse" power cord for laptop broke, can I use a different rated one?

On the cord it says FOXCONN FF-05 7A 125V. It's for my Dell and when I unplugged it today, the 3rd prong stayed in the socket :/
I'm not finding that anywhere. I have found 125v with 2.5a and I have found 10a.
Does it matter? TIA

10 amp is fine. 2.5 amp won't charge it.
Wait, just the cord? Get one that looks about the same size.

Go higher. A circuit will only draw the amps it "needs".

Technically it should still work without the third prong.
