Brightness keeps changing automatically. Adaptive brightness option is not there in the display options

Question

My display brightness keeps changing every time i switch between different apps. I've been having this issue for a long time.

 I'm using HP Omen Laptop. Windows 10.

I saw another thread with the same issue but was unable to reply in it.

I followed the steps that said the following:

*As an initial recommendation, I suggest you to follow the below steps to disable the adaptive or auto brightness for the selected power plan (if you already have a Power Plan created in Windows)

• Open Control Panel and click on Power Options.
• Open your active power plan, you’ll see Change plan settings option. Click Change plan settings next to your current power plan to open Edit Plan Settings window.
• Click Change advanced power settings option. This will open Power Options dialog.
• Expand Display and then expand Enable adaptive brightness. Change it to Off*

But the problem i the option "Enable adaptive brightness" is not even there.

So What do i do now?

Answer 1

Hi there. Thanks for the link. but the thing is that is not my issue. My issue is that my display brightness keeps fluctuating even after i've turned off the adaptive brightness in the battery settings and in the advanced display setting the "Enable adaptive brightness" option is not even there like how it should be in normal systems. the fluctuating brightness is really uncomfortable since it keeps fluctuating even when i'm working. I'm looking for a solution to fix the constant changing of my screen brightness. Thank you.

Hi Kaushik,

What you are experiencing is the effect of "Intel Display Power Saving". This is not related to adaptive brightness and is a feature of the intel chip inside your laptop. To toggle it off, do the following:

1. Download Intel Graphics Command Centre from the microsoft store app on your laptop
2. Open it, then go to System
3. After that, go to Power
4. There would be 2 sections - "On Battery" and "Plugged in". Both would have a "Display Power Savings" option. Toggle it off for both. 

After this, you should stop experiencing this dimming of display.

However, I have to notify you that some of the laptops are still experiencing the problem after switching Display Power Savings off. This has recently happened (might be due to an update).

However, this is the only solution (give it a try)

Cheers!

Answer 2

Is there any fix like this but for the Ryzen 5-4600h processer on the omen 15 rather than the intel?

Edit: I fixed it! Thank god! 

        For the AMD models, search up AMD radeon settings in your windows search bar and turn off "Vari-bright"

4. There would be 2 sections - "On Battery" and "Plugged in". Both would have a "Display Power Savings" option. Toggle it off for both. 

For some reason I do not have these sections in my command center. This is all that I see.

will this work with a pc and not a laptop?
