Windows 11 After setting SDR brightness to match HDR, does it still look the same?
In Windows 11's HDR settings, if I adjust the SDR content brightness slider to match the HDR level, will SDR content still display normally? Will it cause overexposure or color issues?

If you slide it all the way to 100%, you're telling Windows to make your desktop and browser as bright as HDR highlights (e.g., 400+ nits). That's when things look "overexposed" and washed out.
