Windows 10: Night light not available

I've been trying to use the Night Light function on my laptop and it's greyed out. I've tried updating the graphics driver

and I saw another solution saying to go to the registry and delete these:

$$windows.data.bluelightreduction.bluelightreductionstate

$$windows.data.bluelightreduction.settings

but I don't seem to have them on my copmuter
