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 have the latest Intel updates but the issue still happens. Where exactly is this "Display Enhancement Service" located.

    BTW according to Microsoft this is a Microsoft issue not Intel:  https://blogs.windows.com/windowsexperience/2018/10/17/announcing-windows-10-insider-preview-build-18262/

    Hey Yo! appro

    Restarting Display Enhancement Service does absolutely nothing.

    Double click Display Enhancement Service in the list.

    In the dialog box that pops up.

    You must  first STOP  at service status.

    Then set Startup type to DISABLED 

    Then click apply

    Then close out click OK

    I can 'almost' guarantee this will work if you follow these steps.

    OK found what you meant, and I appreciate the idea.

    Just don't understand why you want to "Disable" this function. 

    Microsoft has supposedly come up with a fix for this in Build 18262 as above posts so I think I will wait to see what happens.

    BTW - Disabling does exactly what??? I'm not at ur pay grade level - lol
