Windows system HDR brightness auto-adjustment issue

After enabling HDR, the laptop's brightness decreases in scenes with a lot of dark colors, making subtitles and other text difficult to see. Even the white text that appears when restarting becomes dimmer. However, this does not happen in scenes with light colors. What can I do about this?

    Disable Auto HDR in Settings > System > Display > HDR, then manually adjust the SDR content brightness slider. Update your graphics card drivers to ensure HDR compatibility
