Windows 10: Gamma change going from plugged to battery

Hi guys! First time posting here. As the title suggests, my laptop screen's gamma would change when I go from plugged in to battery - specifically the colors all seem brighter on battery. I can't seem to find any color profile associated with on battery or plugged in. My laptop is a Asus zephyrus G14, but I also noticed the same problem on my older Surface Pro (2017 model; never bothered to try to fix it until now). Any idea why this might be happening?

Plugged in but battery does not charge

If the laptop works without the battery then charger is functioning correctly. Take a cloth with a bit of rubbing alcohol on it (or some on-the-go alcohol swabs), and clean the metal contacts that connect your battery to your laptop.

Make sure to install all Windows important updates.

Install latest versions of your laptop device drivers you can download the latest device drivers from the device manufacturer or from your laptop manufacturer website.


Step 1

1. Shutdown your laptop.

2. Remove the battery.

3. Connect the AC power adapter to your laptop.

4. Power on the laptop

5. Open the Device Manager by typing Devmgmt.msc into Start Menu or from Control Panel.

6. Under the Batteries category, right-click all of the Microsoft ACPI Compliant Control Method Battery listings, and select Uninstall (it’s ok if you only have 1).





7. Shutdown the laptop.

8. Insert the battery.

9. Power on the laptop.

If above suggestions wont resolve the battery charge issue then follow below steps.




Step 2

1. Shutdown the laptop.

2. Remove the battery.

3. Start the laptop with only AC adapter connected to laptop.

4. When you login to Windows OS connect the battery while Windows OS working.





Step 3

Reset the System Management Controller. Use one of these methods to reset the SMC, which controls battery management, battery status light.

1. Shut down the computer and disconnect the power cord.

2. Remove the battery.

3. Press and hold the power button for ten seconds.

4. Reattach the battery and AC power adapter, then start up the laptop.


Hopefully one of the above suggestions will help you resolve the battery not charging problem. If battery still doesn't charge, you may need to replace your battery.

Cannot change gamma permanently

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



This could be due to the scheduled task that is set. I suggest you to try the steps listed below and check if it works.

• Search for Task Scheduler from the Start menu and open the same.
  
• Expand Task Scheduler Library and navigate to
  Microsoft\Windows\WindowsColorSystem.
  
• On the right pane, right click on the task
  Calibration loader and choose Properties.
  
• Under Triggers tab, click on
  At Log on and On Connection to User Session, and
  uncheck the Enabled box.
  
• Calibrate Gamma again and restart the machine to see if resets.
  

Hope it helps.

Regards,
