hello , Yesterday I installed the 1809 update , and today i noticed that each time i restart my laptop the brightness level is being reset automatically to 0% or 25-50 i'm not really sure , and after windows will boot up , i will need to manually adjust the screen brightness again to 100% . I searched the web and i found this https://www.windowscentral.com/windows-10-october-2018-update-common-problems-and-fixes#fix\_brightness\_windows10\_1809 , and it might be an update issue i think  , by the way , my power plan is set to maximum performance and my laptop is always plugged in , and solutions or ?

    I'm and end user just like you.

    I agree we need Microsoft to fix this issue but my workaround works in the meantime.

    Same issue here.

    HP Spectre x360 13t with 4K display

    Intel Core i7-8550u with Intel UHD Graphics 620 driver version 23.20.16.5044

    Only the internal display dims after reboot. An external monitor attached via USB-C to HDMI hub doesn't change.

    Under advanced power settings - Display there is only the settings for Turn off Display after - On Battery and Plugged in. There is no option for adaptive brightness or any other options.

    To draw more attention I will also post on this thread because I also face the same issue. But I have to say that the issue only happens for me on one device. My Dell XPS15 has the issue whether my XPS14 doesn't have. They both have nearly the same combination of dedicated / integrated graphic units.

    So the issue might be related to the actual driver. However for older laptops there is on option for updgrading the driver because there simply isn't one with a more recent release date. So Microsoft has to fix this issue.
