Windows 10: How to change the Windows 11 brightness keys change rate

When I change the volume by pressing the F-keys on the laptop, the change is at a rate of 2%, so from say 45 I press the volume up key - it goes to 47, then 49, etc. When I do the same for brightness, it goes by 10%, e.g. from 45 it goes to 55, then 65 and so on. Is there a registry or any other setting that regulates this? I want to be able to change the brightness by 1 or 2% with each key stroke, not by 10. I have issues with my eyesight and I'm using my screen brightness often down in the 5-15% range, so jumping 10% with a keystroke is like jumping from 10% to 80% for normal people.Yes, I

I'm not able to change refresh rate in my Windows 11!

I recently purchased a new high-performance monitor that supports up to 144Hz refresh rate. I want to ensure I’m utilizing its full potential for a smoother visual experience, especially for gaming and video editing. However, I'm not entirely sure how to change the refresh rate on my Windows 11 PC.

Here are some specifics about my setup:

• I'm running Windows 11 Home Edition.
  
• My graphics card is an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660.
  
• The monitor is connected via HDMI 2.0.
  

Could someone provide a detailed, step-by-step guide on how to adjust the refresh rate?

Additionally, are there any potential issues or common pitfalls I should be aware of when changing the refresh rate? For example, compatibility issues between my monitor and graphics card, or any impact on system performance?

I appreciate any help or advice you can offer. Thanks in advance!
