Windows 10: how do i fix my screen brightness?

my screen dimmed and when i try to turn up the brightness it said it’s at the max? This started when I was typing in a password for something and I clicked some keys and my screen just got darker. Is there a way i can get it back to normal?

screen brightness on windows 10

Hi,

Some computers can let Windows automatically adjust screen brightness based on the current lighting conditions.

To manually adjust the screen brightness, we suggest following these troubleshooting steps:

• Click Start, then select Settings.
• Choose System, then select Display.
• Under Brightness and color, move the Change brightness slider to adjust the brightness.

Feel free to post back if you have other concern.

 

Brightness is fixed/unadjustable.

If it was working previously, I'd bet it stopped due to a mirror driver being installed. Mirror drivers are what allow remote meeting software like GoToMeeting, WebEx, and Team Viewer to copy the screen.

Here's the steps I would suggest:

• Right-click the Start button, choose Device Manager
• Go to the Monitor section (not display adapter) and remove everything inside (right-click and uninstall)
• Click the "Scan for hardware" on the toolbar (has a magnifying glass icon on it)
• Try adjusting brightness again

Please let me know how it goes.
