Windows 10: Why is my laptop brightness so dark?

On my windows 11 laptop, my screen is almost black. I can't see much, just barely anything. I've tried to troubleshoot it using a shortcut, but it won't work. I'm completely worried and confused. My brightness keys won't work either.

Windows lowering brightness for dark mode application while not charging (on a laptop)

Hello,

I am unable to find a solution. When I'm using my laptop when it's not charging, it keep lowering the brightness for dark mode app (ex. Visual Studio, spotify, ...). And when switching to non dark app, it goes back to the normal brightness.

Is there a known solution to my problem ?

 

0% brightness is too much in a dark Room . How to configure minimum brightness on laptop screen?

I would like to know if there is a way to continue to lower the backlight brightness when the brightness slider is already on the 0%. Since I need a dimmer screen.

I'm using a laptop, so there's no physical buttons that control monitor brightness.

I have correctly installed latest drivers for video adapter. The brightness slider works as expected .

My concern is minimum brightness on my laptop is too much for me in a dark room, hence want to reduce it further.
