    Night light on second monitor with USB-C to HDMI cable


    I've connected my Surface Pro X to an ASUS VG27A monitor with a USB-C to HDMI cable https://www.amazon.co.jp/gp/product/B088NS4JQZ. Night light and f.lux only works on the Surface screen. Is it possible to get night light working on the ASUS monitor as well? If not, is there a solution that can get the same effect? All drivers and Windows updates are up-to-date.

    :)

  2. Night Light Setting and Third Monitor.

    Hi Reagan,

    We would like to ask you some questions in order assist you properly:

    • Did Night light work previously on all three monitors?
    • Have you made any recent changes to your PC?
    • Are you getting an error message on the third monitor regarding Night light?
    • Is the third monitor being detected by your PC?
    • What troubleshooting steps have you performed so far?

    While waiting for your response, we suggest that you try to connect your third monitor to what you are using on the 2 working monitors to see if it is only a loose connection issue.

    Regards.

    Night Light Setting Not applied to Monitor Connected Via USB 3.0

    Hi,

    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

    1. Are you able to enable Night light feature on the issue monitor, when connected using a DVI or HDMI cable?

    2. Is the Night light feature option greyed out in Settings?

    I'd suggest you to update the display adapter and check. Refer this article on

    Update drivers in Windows 10


    Please reply back with the required information.

    Regards,

  4. Night light on second monitor with USB-C to HDMI cable

    Can't Pull Out USB-C to Displayport Cable From Monitor End?

    https://www.amazon.com/Cable-Matter...41297702&sr=8-3&keywords=usb+c+to+displayport





    I bought this usb-c to displayport cable not long ago because i was getting another monitor to have 2 monitors. That monitor did not have hdmi so i had to buy this cable. I have a dell xps 15 9550 laptop and have 2 monitors both are 24' and 1920x1200 resolution. One of them i connect from hdmi to hdmi. The other monitor is an asus 24' monitor that i used the usb c to displayport cable to connect it. This is what i bought.




    https://www.amazon.com/PA248Q-ProAr...F8&qid=1541297862&sr=1-1&keywords=asus+pa248q







    Thus i have 2 monitors connected to my dell laptop. When i got the cable, i plugged it in and it works good. However, last time when i tried to unplug the usb-c to displayport cable from the asus monitor... i could not pull it out. Its like stuck and i did not want to use a lot of strength to do it. Also when i did this, the monitor seemed to not power on and was worried i damaged it but it was the power cord being a bit loose.




    Has anyone here ever had this happen before? Thus my other monitor... which is hdmi to hdmi, very easy to pull out the cable from either my laptop or the monitor's end. But with the usb-c to displayport... i cannot pull out the displayport cable from my monitor's end. Of course the usb-c part from my laptop is easy to unplug.
    Does anyone know what im doing wrong here? The usb-c to display port does say hold to release etc but whatever i do, i cannot unplug it for some reason.





    • Has anyone here got the same cable as i do? Are displayport cables harder to pull out than hdmi cables?
