    Screen auto dimming on dark background since last windows update up to date Oct 19 2021


    My laptop auto rebooted for updates and now the screen keeps dimming with dark backgrounds then brightens again with light backgrounds. It's very annoying. The laptop is plugged in and I have checked the power settings. I have no adaptive display option in the advanced settings nor in the task scheduler. Also no "Change brightness automatically when lighting changes" setting under Display in Settings.How can I turn this auto dimming back off?

    :)

    Can't disable auto-dimming from dark to bright background apparently

    Hi there,

    I would like to disable Auto dimming on my ASUS VivoBook S15 S510UQ, I tried to disable Adaptive Brightness from the Power Options and also switching off from Intel's graphic card control centre the Power Saving Technology thing but nothing changed.

    Right now I am on battery, on sunlight coming from out of the window and I can see the notebook playing some funny stuff with the dimming anyway.

    It seems to be related to when you switch from a dark background - say ACDsee photo viewer - back to file explorer that has a white background.

    How to fix?

    thanks!

    Screen auto dims when the backdrop is dark

    I have disabled adaptive brightness, as well in my Intel Graphics Control Panel I have disabled display power saving technology. However whenever the backdrop is dark, the screen still dims. I have a Dell Inspiron 15 3000 series. Even when I have the computer
    plugged in the screen dims when there is a dark backdrop.

    Samsung Focus - Auto dimming on white background screens

    Has anyone else noticed that the screen on the Focus will dim itself when the majority of pixels on screen are white, regardless if you have auto-brightness off? For example, opening the email client or internet explorer will instantly dim
    the screen. If you set the color scheme to light/white, the home screen does not dim, but swipe over to the application list, and it dims.


    This feature is not present on the other WP7 phones, so I can only assume that Samsung added it to the OS themselves, probably as a sneaky way to artificially improve battery life (since Microsoft has strict mandates on using only three brightness
    settings).


    Is there anything Microsoft can do to remove this feature? Maybe like providing a vanilla WP7 installation? I've contacted Samsung but I couldn't even get them to understand the problem.
