display brightness control not working

Hello all,

Currently I'm using Windows 10 insider preview OS Build 17133.73. 

I;m not able to change the display brightness.  I have tried all the available solution on web such as updating/reinstalling display driver, Switch to microsoft basic display adopter etc. 

None of them seems to work.

Please help.

Thanks

      its not been resolved. I have come down to 1709 update and in advanced, changed to Semi-annual channel instead of semi-annual targeted, which will help in buying some months of time till Microsoft forces new feature update on you. and you can defer feature update by max no of days. That's the only hope for us as Microsoft is not resolving this blunder of an issue.

      Same Issue since yesterday. My old Dell XPS L501X display is on full blast since yesterday, nothing is working to change brightness. My laptop is 1st gen i5 and only from Intel HD graphics driver, I am able to reduce brightness as some have pointed out in reddit post. Please resolve this bug Microsoft

        hi,

         

        I have the same L501x model as you do. I've found out that if you disable sensor services in services.msc in Win 10 v 1709 you get the same issue as in v1803. I believe it's a sensor service issue. Since you are running v1803 can you please check if you disable and re-enable the service fix the brightness issue?

         

        Thanks,
