Your screen brightness keeps changing by itself
Windows has an automatic brightness feature that adjusts the screen based on room lighting or what's on your screen. Turn it off and set brightness to your preference. This takes less than 5 minutes.
Windows includes automatic brightness control that watches either the light in your room or what's on your screen and adjusts brightness without asking. This is sometimes helpful but just annoying. Turning it off gives you back control of your screen.

Skip — I just want a technicianCommon mistakes to avoid
- Turning off adaptive brightness only in Display settings and missing the Power settings copy — both need to be off
- Using keyboard brightness buttons thinking that will override the adaptive setting — keyboard buttons don't override the adaptive feature
Signs you need professional help
- Brightness still changes even after both adaptive settings are turned off
- The setting reverts to on after every restart
