Windows 10: Reset of Win 10 Pro went wrong last night

I am in need of help because Windows 10 pro 64 bit crashed on my Asus ROG FX553VD laptop last night, and after resetting, it is now limited 1024 x 768 and 800 x 600 resolution. I can't play my games now. What can I do? I am 6 months out of warranty with Asus already. I would be very grateful for a little help. I had a sleepless night last night having done hundreds of searches for help using my browser, but no real help there. I tried installing the Nvidia DCH driver for my Nvidia Geforce 1050 graphics multiple times for my graphics card because I found a couple articles that said that was how I could obtain the full Nvidia Control Panel enabling me to get the right resolution, but despite trying many, many times that just did not work for me. Please can somebody help me with this problem? I feel like a worn-out exhausted old Sad Sack now, but I will smile and laugh again if when I wake up tomorrow and check, and see that somebody has given me a solution! I am on Windows Pro 64 bit 1803.

No Night Light

Hi allisonb1

Try these steps

Option 1. Reset Night Light-related Settings on Windows 10 Fall Creators Update

If you find the night light in the Action Center or the Settings is greyed out after the Windows 10 Fall Creators Update, you can fix it with the steps below:

Step 1. Use Windows shortcut keys Win + i to open Settings.

Step 2. Go to the Privacy menu.

Step 3. On the left side, choose the Location tab.

Step 4. Click the Change button under the Location for this device.

Step 5. Toggle the switch under the Location for this device to ON.

Step 6. Toggle the switch under the Location service to ON.

Step 7. Restart the computer.

Now check the Action Center or the Settings on your Windows 10 Fall Creators Update to see if the night light feature is available.

Option 2 . Modify Registry to Fix Night Light Not Working on Windows 10 Fall Creators Update

If the methods above didn't work, you may need to modify the registry to fix the greyed-out night light button or the night light not working issue. Note: Windows Registry is a vital database on Windows OS computer. Any misoperation will cause server system
problems, such as 100% disk usage issue, blue screen issue, endless reboot, etc. So it's important to backup registry before the changes.

Now let's kill the night light not working and release the pain:

Step 1. Use Windows shortcut keys Win + R to launch Run.

Step 2. Type into regedit.

Step 3. Hit the Enter key.

Step 4. Copy and paste the path into the address bar of the Registry Editor: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\CloudStore\Store\Cache\DefaultAccount

Step 5. Press the Enter key.

Step 6. Right-click the key $$windows.data.bluelightreduction.bluelightreductionstate under the DefaultAccount and select the Delete to remove it.

Step 7. Right-click the key $$windows.data.bluelightreduction.settings and select the Delete.

Step 8. Restart the computer.

Then you can go to the Action Center or the Windows Settings. The night light not working issue has been resolved now and the night light button is available.
