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.

    I created this task in PowerShell that adjusts the brightness at startup to Microsoft Windows 10 V1809.

    C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe "(Get-WmiObject -Namespace root/WMI -Class WmiMonitorBrightnessMethods).WmiSetBrightness(1,100)"

    1. Run "C:\Windows\System32\taskschd.msc"
    2. Right click on Task Scheduler and select create task
    3. I used "ScreenBrightness" for the task name
    4. Select "Run whether user is logged on or not"
    5. Select "Run with highest privileges"
    6. Click on "Triggers" tab
    7. Click on "New"
    8. Choose "Begin the task: "At Startup"
    9. Click on "Okay"
    10. Click on the "Actions" tab
    11. Click on New
    12. Past the command into the Program/Script Line
    13. Click on Okay
    14. Click on Yes
    15. Enter your Windows user password
    16. Click on okay.

    When you restart your computer the screen brightness will change to 100% (1,100)

    Win + R    gpedit. Msc then

    Computer configuration.       Admin. Temp.       System.   Power management.  Video and display setting  

    Every thing is there

    Don with no problems 

    This only is for pro edition, how about registry settings for win 10 home?
