Screen automatically dimmed, after windows update

Question

Hello, for some reason my laptop display screen seems awfully dimmed after the last couple windows and chrome updates, I tried sending a feedback to google either. Before, It used to be bright now it is really dim. I turned off my screen dimmer app, the adaptative brightness is off, even across different lightings and time of day it is super dim. I even tried playing around with the calibrating, color settings, display settings, and themes no one of them fixed it. Not even restarting or updating helped. Even at 100% brightness, it has like almost this weird blue-cold gray filter over it that makes it super dim. This is the same for across google chrome, and any other apps. I even turned off darkmode through chrome extensions as well.

How do I fix this? Its making me hard to focus on studying.

Answer 1

Answer 2

A Q for the win group and not o365/Office

Win11 by default only installs critical security updates, unless you made the mistake of selecting “Get latest updates” which includes drivers.

See your laptop/PC makers support to update both bios and ALL drivers.

There should be a shortcut to that makers update utility on your system.

Then set Bios to defaults & Pwr to balanced. At the end of the day shutdown, do not leave in sleep.

Do NOT update from any other source inc Device Manager
