Windows Night Light not turning on or off automatically
Night Light is disabled or your graphics drivers do not support it. Go to Settings → System → Display and toggle Night Light on. If that does not work, update your graphics drivers.
Night Light reduces blue light from your screen to help you sleep better at night. It can be turned on manually or set to a schedule. When Night Light is not working, it is in most cases because a setting is disabled or a driver is blocking it.

Skip — I just want a technicianCommon mistakes to avoid
- Confusing Night Light with Display brightness - Night Light adds a warm orange filter, it does not make the screen dimmer
- Setting a schedule but forgetting to enable the schedule toggle - the schedule must be turned on separately from the manual toggle
Signs you need professional help
- If Night Light still does not work after updating your graphics driver, your graphics hardware may not support Night Light. Call us to check compatibility.
