Windows 10: Night Light doesn't automatically turn off in the morning

I have a Inspiron 5521 running the may19 update. Win10 is update to date in all aspects. when I open it up in the morning, the Night Light schedule seems to be ignored, and I have to manually turn it off every morning. I suspect it has something to do with coming out of Sleep, but I'd love some guidance.

I have tried the methods posted here, but no result.

Please advise a solution.

Hi Georgios: My name is Ron. First question, do you have the "Creators Update" installed? If you run WINVER it should show version 1703. Second, have you followed the steps outlined in this article to turn on and configure the feature: https://www.howtogeek.com/302186/how-to-enable-night-light-on-windows-10/

Hi Wayne Walton,

There could be a number of factors as to why you are experiencing Night Light issue. One possible caused could be due to an outdated graphics driver. You can refer to the steps below on how to troubleshoot Night Light issue is Windows 10:

Method 1: Update the graphics card driver.

1. Press Windows key + R on your keyboard.
   
2. On the run command box, type devmgmt.msc, and then hit Enter.
   
3. Expand Display adapters.
4. Right-click the graphics card driver and then select Update Driver Software.
   

Method 2: Uninstall and reinstall the graphics card driver.

1. Press Windows key + R on your keyboard.
   
2. On the run command box, type devmgmt.msc, and then hit Enter.
3. Expand Display adapters.
4. Right-click the graphics card driver and then select Uninstall.
5. Restart your computer. The Display Adapter Driver will automatically reinstall after the Restart.

Method 3: Reset Night Light settings manually.

This steps will require you to modify some settings in Registry. This is an advanced troubleshooting so I suggest that you create a
System Restore point so you can go back to this state in case that you will encounter any issues along the process. To create a system restore point, refer to this
article.

Once you're done creating a system restore point, you may then proceed to modify the registry settings. To do this, refer to the steps below:

1. Press Windows key + R on your keyboard.
   
2. On the run command box, type regedit and then hit
   Enter.
   
3. Navigate to this path:
   
   HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\CloudStore\Store\Cache\DefaultAccount
   
4. Inside the “DefaultAccount” (folder) key, right-click and delete the following folders:
   
   $$windows.data.bluelightreduction.bluelightreductionstate
   
   $$windows.data.bluelightreduction.settings
   
5. Restart your computer.
