One of the major issues is the no brightness slider Windows 10.

Suffocation to the eyes.

Too high or low brightness displayed on the screen.

There are hardware and software controls to make the recommended adjustments.

But in recent times after a few updates, the screen brightness change refuses to work.

Cant Adjust the brightness in the Windows 10 desktop?

Why do you gotta change Brightness Windows 10?

In laptops the amount of battery life depends on various factors.

Brightness control is one of items.

If you are using too much brightness, then your battery too will drain off quickly.

Eyes get tired if brightness is too heavy in the dark.

After dusk, eyes suited for dim light.

For both of these reasons, you better adjust brightness in Windows 10 from time to time.

Same for me with a brand new Lenovo.

It worked initially, but Im guessing after an update the brightness no longer works.

Ive looked for an automatic brightness button.

Ive located the slider and it doesnt change anything.

In System Display the brightness slider doesnt change anything.

And the F%/F^ buttons also dont do anything.

like tell me how to do get it up and running.

The screen is dim all the time.

In other cases, hue and saturation are also required to be changed for minute adjustments.

The following solutions will help you to resolvescreen brightness not working in Windows 10.

Adjust the Brightness Slider

In the latest laptops, you could see abrightness slidercontrol in theAction Centre.

Also, in recent years, All-In-One and Compact computers have taken precedence.

In this punch in of systems, the monitors are connected to the computer CPU.

Go ToSettings > System > Display.

On the right-hand side, there is a check box that says Change brightness automatically when lighting changes.

This will automatically change the screen brightness based upon the surrounding light and ambience.

If you are not satisfied with this level, then you canmove the sliderabove to fine tune the brightness.

Generally, this kind of setting does not appear for external monitors and is available after the 1903 update.

For the traditional kind of monitors, you’re able to follow the below solution.

For example, myLG IPS FULLHD (19201080@60Hz) monitoris a plug-n-play pop in of gear.

It has a switch at the center.

When I press it, there are several options.

When I poke the Menu I can see further options.

I turned on the Picture Mode to Custom.

Then I went back to Quick options.

In that option, I can move the brightness and contrast sliders to adjust my monitor controls.

I normally set them to 35 for cool eye effect.

Download Graphic or Display Drivers

Many of the desktops, computers are having either in-built graphic drivers.

For example, Intel and AMD processors also come up with a graphic driver.

This is when you connect your monitor to the motherboard directly.

In other cases, you have a graphics card like NVIDIA.

In that case, you better connect to the port of that card.

For detailed instruction onhow to download the NVIDIA drivers, you’re able to follow this tutorial.

For example, I have an oldNVIDIA GeForce 210graphics card installed.

I connect my monitor to this graphics card port.

When I installed this hardware, a control panel also got installed.

This can be opened from the Notification Area or from the Control Panel.

This way you’ve got the option to adjust the brightness in your Windows 10 desktop.

In such cases, you could use the basicMicrosoft Display Adaperthat comes with the OS.

Otherwise, you’re able to take a stab at update the brightness drivers using the equipment Manager.

In Windows 10, it automatically suggests the recommended screen resolution controls.

If you opt for that, then the screen slider control also works the way it is intended to.

You also need to set the right frequency for your monitor based upon its design like 60 Hz.

These can be reached from System > Display in the options window.

For further clarification you canread about this article.

This will cause less strain to the eyes and is useful at night timings.

This is also available in the parameters window.

it’s possible for you to go toSystem > Display > Night light options.

you better turn the option for Night light under Color.

In the Night light controls, you might set the timings for this option to turn on and off.

I normally set it to turn on at 6AM and turn off at 12AM.

This way the computer monitor artificially looks cooler though the screen brightness controls dont work.

8 Using ATI Video Card Control Panel

This is a similar way of using graphics card.

But here you are using theVideo Card Control Panel.

If you are usingATI Video Cards, you’re free to use this feature.

You see a symbol, something like a sun icon.

Most probably these are the F1 and F2 keys.

All you have to do is press theFn key on your laptop keyboardand the above keys.

One is used for dimming the light and the other to augment it.

These tweaks are not available on your desktop.

Adjust Monitor Brightness in Windows Desktop

In the previous versions of Windows, you dont have a prefs app.

Navigate throughControl Panel > Hardware and Sound > Power Options.

On the right-hand side, you will see a slider that says Screen brightness at the bottom.

You may have to scroll a bit, to see that option.

Otherwise, it may not be visible.

Then select your power plan for eg.Balanced.

There are two configs here 1.

On battery and 2.

Plugged In

Below each setting, there is a slider which says Adjust plan brightness.
