  1. Certain Applications Cause Lighting to Change


    I'm running my PC through an HDMI onto my TCL Roku-Smart 43" TV, and some applications change certain aspects of the display that make everything hard to look at.

    Unfortunately it's hard for me to describe exactly what changes, as I've poked through all of my TVs settings and the settings I can find in Windows 10, and it's not due to the gamma, contrast or brightness. It kind of looks like a bevel/emboss effect has been added to my PC, everything looks slightly brighter and more grating to look at.

    This used to happen when I opened Hulu, but I managed to change some kind of setting that involved automatically changing display settings and preventing that from happening with Hulu. However, it's started back up again when I updated Adobe Illustrator to the 2021 version, and it also happens randomly when opening games.

    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    Hi,



    The issue on the LED lights on your device could be cause by a certain change you’ve made on your device, updating Windows, downloading a certain software or a problem on the hardware itself. To provide you with appropriate troubleshooting, please provide
    the following information:



    • Have you made recent changes on the device prior to the issue?
    • Which version of Windows are you using?
    • Aside from the LED lights, are you having other issues on the device?


    Regards.

    Unable to download certain applications

    Hi,

    Thank you for getting back with a reply.

    This issue may also happen due to system file corruption. I suggest you to run System file checker. System File checker (SFC) scan is done to check if there are any corrupted system files that could be causing this issue. Kindly
    follow the below given steps:

    • Press Windows key + X, select
      Command prompt (Admin)
      to bring up elevated Command prompt.
    • In Command prompt type sfc/scannow and press enter.
    • Restart the computer.
    If no corrupted system files were found in the previous state, then I suggest you to try the following steps:

    • Open command prompt by pressing Windows key + X and selecting “Command prompt admin”.
    • In command prompt, type the following commands and press Enter after each command:
    DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Scanhealth

    DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth

    • Close the command prompt and restart the PC and check if it works.

    Hope the information helps. Keep us posted on Windows related queries and we will be happy to assist you further.
