Windows 10: Video auto adjust contrast. How to fix it?

Arghhh I can't figure out the culprit! Please help!
Videos I watch on all browsers and all sites begin at full contrast then suddenly lose contrast. If I pause and switch windows, when I get back to the window with the video it's again at full contrast then again loses contrast a second after starting playback. WHAT is causing this? Cannot for the life of me find anything on Google.
This doesn't happen when videos are fullscreen.
My graphics card is an AMD 5700 XT, if it matters?

Very pleased to see your reply. I have given you the laptop details at the bottom of my reply but first I would like to tell you the result of the above exercise when I followed the steps you mentioned.

The below mentioned sequence of screens appeared. There were no sliders or adjusting options.

• Calibrate display color clicked on same thru cortana.
• Clicked Next on Display Color Calibration window. No Sliders or adjustment options
• Clicked Next on Set basic color settings window. No sliders or adjustment options
• There was no screen for How to adjust gamma so I clicked Next button to continue.
• When the above fourth step screen was not available to Adjust gamma window prompts. I Pressed
  Next button.
• Then I saw the Find the brightness and contrast controls display. BUT NO SLIDERS or Adjustment options SO I Tapped on
  Skip brightness and contrast adjustment still to see what happens.
• I got the window called How to adjust color balance. without any sliders.
• In the window “How to adjust color balance”, I hit the Next button to go further window.
• Here, I noticed another window Adjust color balance. In this window, I had no option or sliders to adjust the primary colors in fact there the strips had no red,
  blue or green colors except black and grey strips so I pressed the
  Next button.

Win10 Laptop STILL auto adjusting contrast

I have a Acer Aspire E 15 laptop and I had this issue fixed by following what you said here, although I recently updated my Windows 10 machine and then the dynamic contrast issue reappeared. For anyone who has the same issue, this is what I did to make this work, here:

I'd have liked to add this as a comment, but I do not have the reputation to do this, so I made it look pretty and defined it as an answer. I hope this helps anyone who finds this. Thanks.
