Windows 10: Is it possible to disable adaptive brightness on Windows 10 Laptops?

Hello,


I've recently noticed that my Samsung laptop adjusts brightness a bit too aggressively to the ambient lighting level, so my screen is always a bit too dim. Is there a way to set the laptop to manual brightness adjustments only?


Thank you!

How to disable adaptive brightness by default

I followed the steps listed in the linked thread, and still no change. I don't believe that the linked thread is dealing with the same issues that I am dealing with.

Furthermore, I do not understand why I would ever need to change registry settings, or restore default power settings. To be clear, this isn't a bug that is causing my brightness to be lower than it should, this is obviously an intended feature of
Windows to enable adaptive brightness so that the screen adapts in differently lit environments. Either I'm wrong, and this isn't an intended feature (in which case, why is it there at all), or I'm right and this is an intended feature, and my point
still stands: Why can't I disable adaptive brightness and leave it disabled permanently?

I'm quite disappointed that something as crucial as the brightness of one's screen is not implemented correctly. This should be fixed ASAP.

As for this thread and my concerns, I would still like to see if there is a solution that can be provided. Thank you.

 

Adaptive Brightness will not stay disabled permanently

I'm using an ASUS laptop with Windows 10. With adaptive brightness turned on, the screen is always incredibly dim, even when I manually set the brightness to the highest possible setting. Anything lower than the highest setting is practically illegible.

When I turn adaptive brightness off, everything is great. I can manually set it to very bright or very dim as needed.

The problem is that every single time I restart my computer, adaptive brightness is re-enabled, and I have to navigate through the Power Options > Change plan settings > Change advanced power settings > Display > Adaptive Brightness menus in order to be
able to actually see my screen again.

I want a way to disable this feature permanently. If there's a way to completely remove the adaptive brightness option from my computer, even better. This "feature" has caused nothing but frustration.
