  1. Cannot change brightness after windows update


    I kept getting the popup to update windows so I update windows now I CANNOT change the brightness even with hotkeys everything was working fine before I did the update. I have tried everything literally. I know what you will probably reply. Enable Generic PnP Monitor, I've done that didn't work. Update drivers done that didn't work. Edit power plan enable from display there, tried that doesn't even show. I have tried uninstalling relevant drivers and restarting, doesn't work. I have tried everything. I CANNOT change the brightness It is hurting my eyes and draining my battery so quick. My laptop is msi GS63 7RD. I updated windows yesterday. I have all the latest driver even from manufacturers website.

    Help Please!!

    I have included some picture of what I'm seeing

  3. Brightness changing problem

    Hi,

    Changing the screen brightness on your laptop can be adjusted by going to
    System > Display
    where you can use the slider to adjust the brightness. If your PC supports, you may also let Windows to automatically adjust the screen brightness according to the current lighting condition by enabling
    Change brightness automatically when lighting changes.

    If you've already the tried the suggestions above but the screen brightness still doesn't change, then we suggest updating the display drivers. Please see

    Update drivers in Windows 10
    for the steps on how to update the drivers.

    Feel free to let us know if you need further assistance.

    Regards.
