Windows 10: Auto-brightness keeps changing, but it says I don't have adaptive brightness

I've been experiencing this issue for a long time now, where my laptop changes brightness depending on the display that's on the screen. However, every time I try and fix this all of the tutorials tell me to go to the Intel Command Center or check my display settings, but I can't seem to find anything that I'm looking for. So, even though my laptop does not say anything about adaptive brightness anywhere and won't let me change it, It still changes anyways. I'm not sure where else I need to be looking or how to fix this at all.

Brightness keeps changing automatically. Adaptive brightness option is not there in the display options

My display brightness keeps changing every time i switch between different apps. I've been having this issue for a long time.

I'm using HP Omen Laptop. Windows 10.

I saw another thread with the same issue but was unable to reply in it.

I followed the steps that said the following:

*As an initial recommendation, I suggest you to follow the below steps to disable the adaptive or auto brightness for the selected power plan (if you already have a Power Plan created in Windows)

• Open Control Panel and click on Power Options.
• Open your active power plan, you’ll see Change plan settings option. Click Change plan settings next to your current power plan to open Edit Plan Settings window.
• Click Change advanced power settings option. This will open Power Options dialog.
• Expand Display and then expand Enable adaptive brightness. Change it to Off*

But the problem i the option "Enable adaptive brightness" is not even there.





So What do i do now?

 

Adaptive Brightness

Hi, I'm Carlos Eduardo and I'm an independent Microsoft expert and I'm here to help you in the best possible way. Windows has an adaptable brightness, but it is necessary to activate it. Perform the following steps.

Step 1. Access the Windows power settings. To do this, simultaneously press the '' Windows + R '' keys. In the window that will appear, type “powercfg.cpl” (without the quotes) and press '' Enter '';

Step 2. In “Power Options”, tap on the item “Change plan settings” that is next to the plan currently in use;

Step 3. In “Edit Plan Settings”, click on “Change advanced power settings”;

Step 4. In the window that will be displayed, locate the item “Video” and click on the plus sign next to it. Below, do the same with the item “Enable adaptive brightness”;

Step 5. To activate the adaptive brightness, just click on the arrow next to the items “On battery:” and “On socket:”, and change the option “Off” to “On”.

Ready! Now, let Windows take care of the screen brightness for you.
