Hi,

Anyone has the same issue as me?

When I change brightness with keyboard it does change to 30-50% only (no visible change).

When changing in side swipe, with touch it allows me to change 0%-100% (no visible change)

I tried with nigh mode off... no change

Tried windows setting ... no change

Ambient light On/Off... no change

Can anyone help?

    I found this Microsoft Surface Diagnostic Toolkit (https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4037239/surface-fix-common-surface-problems-using-surface-diagnostic-toolkit) and it fixed the problem for me!

    It worked for my Microsoft Surface Pro 7!! Thank you :)

    This made my screen really small but it didn’t fix the brightness problem.. how can I get my screen back to the way it was?

    (Also any other suggestions for the brightness issue?)

    the way to fix the brightness is to press and hold the power button and the volume buttons until you see the windows logo appear on screen,

    when this happens, let go of the buttons

    to fix the problem of your screen being small I would need some clarification to know what the actual problem is but from what I can tell you need to go to settings > system > display > scale and layout > 200% (recommended)

    if there are black borders around your display then just change the resolution that is the highest on the list under "Display resolution"
