Windows 10: Windows 11 HDR shortcut not working

Hi all,I just did a clean format of my computer and re-installed Win 11. While most everything is in it's right place, the HDR shortcut Win + Alt + B does not toggle HDR mode on/off. I've read that that some people have opened up Xbox Game Bar and the shortcut began to work but that did nothing for me. Does anyone know what I can do to get this shortcut to work again? It's rather handy and saves a few clicks a few times a day so I'd appreciate some direction.Thanks.

HDR support for windows 11

Hi Nadeem. I'm Greg, 10 years awarded Windows MVP, here to help you.

I would contact LG Support which is included with the monitor purchase for at least the first year, during which they must get it working properly or repair or replace it under warranty.

Try these troubleshooting steps for HDR monitor display in Windows 11:
