    Brightness bar scrolls but the brightness doesnt adjust


    I have a windows surface laptop. When I google brightness adjustment issues, it only shows resolution for when the brightness bar doesnt move or are disabled. My brightness bar slides up and down, corresponds woth the keys however the physical brightness of the computer does not change. How can I resolve this issue?
