Brightness not working after latest update
Dear Windows 11 Team,
I am writing to report an issue that I have encountered after the latest Windows 11 Insider Program update. Specifically, I have noticed that the brightness controls on my device are not working properly. Despite my attempts to adjust the brightness settings, the screen remains at a constant level of brightness.
Please let me know if there is any additional information or diagnostic reports that I can provide to help diagnose and fix this issue. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Best regards

- Having the same issue on the latest Dev preview build
- I also have the same issue. I am glad it wasn't just me. Tried reinstalling drivers and nothing seems to work. Only max brightness for me. The brightness level is going up and down when I adjust, but the monitor is not adjusting.
- I'm having the exact same problem after updating to this latest canary build. I was about to start tinkering with settings when I came across this discussion. Dev team please look into this. Thank you!
See if this fix helps you:

TalhaHashmi95 Same here, I updated to the latest build this morning and I can't adjust my laptop's brightness level. I hope Microsoft will do something about it.
@ am also having the same issue. Installed 25314 and now I have no control over the screen brightness on my laptop.
it's from windows os, i was upgrading to windows 11 insider build 25314 and then i got an error in brightness. So, this solution only one just you must wait this windows next update, thanks
I am facing the same issue on the latest build I updated to i.e. 25314
Hoping for a fix soon as cannot use the system at full brightness all the time.
- This is the only thing preventing me from joining the Canary build. I had this problem too and had to do a clean install to fix it. The Devs need to take a closer look at this
The same thing happened to me on 8 March 2023. My Surface Book 2 brightness does not change despite using the keyboard, and seeing the animation. Resetting the PC, removing both display drivers and replacing does not repair the problem.
