    Will answer to myself. Probably this may help:

    Brightness for plugged power:

    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Power\PowerSettings\f1fbfde2-a960-4165-9f88-50667911ce96]
    "ACSettingIndex"=dword:00000005
    
    Brightness for battery:
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Power\PowerSettings\f1fbfde2-a960-4165-9f88-50667911ce96]
    "DCSettingIndex"=dword:00000005Both values in percents. dword:00000005 = 5%

    I follow this thread for a long time from the very beginning of the problem. Now I have Win ver 1909. But when the setting was available I set up 80% brightness when laptop uses battery and 100% when power is plugged in.

    So this already works: I have no access to settings but I still have 100% with power plugged and 80% from battery. And I think we all have to search somewhere in registry. Windows keeps this setting somewhere and there should be workaround to adjust it without user interface.

    Unfortunately I can't make an experiment: install old version of Win 10 where this setting was still available, save registry to file, change brightness settings and compare registries. May be someone here can?

    I am facing the same problem, there are no adaptive settings option awailable. In my laptop, the brightness keeps on increasing to 100 unnecessarily. I literally had a battle with laptop to minimize the brightness, but after few seconds it turns back to 100% and that's irritating. 

    Please help..!! I have lots of work to do... And with that brightness its impossible to work, atleast suggest me any third party aap to control the brightness... Please help...
