Windows 10: Why have the screen brightness controls disappeared?

Windows installed an update on my laptop overnight and now I am unable to control the screen brightness. The slider is marked inactive and there is no longer a brightness control function in system>display. Has anyone else encountered this problem/know of a solution?

• Click Start, then select Settings.
• Choose System, then select Display.
• Under Brightness and color, move the Change brightness slider to adjust the brightness.
