Brightness keeps changing in Windows 10 x64
I have tried everything, going to advanced power settings, system settings but nothing. I have also tried to go to Intel options but i don't see any option to turn off power saving so I don't know what to do. It changes when im swapping windows, for example, if I am on Facebook and I swap to a game window, it decreases in brightness.

I didn't even know brightness can change in a desktop computer. Laptops, sure, but a desktop?

What is the model of your laptop? What do you mean by "brightness change"? Does it changes according to ambient light conditions / battery level? Does it change when you leave your laptop idle for a few minutes? Please add these to your question (don't answer in a comment) to help us understand your issue.

This was bugging me for years till I found answer in some obscure forum, here it the problem: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/3046889/intel-display-power-saving-technology-settings-incorrect-if-power-source-changed-during-sleep
In case the link drops dead, here is still solution how to fix it
Solution:
Open your Intel HD
- The drivers for your integrated Intel HD graphics card. I am aware this is counter intuitive for users who have dedicated graphics card, but the way this whole thing at point of writing is working means that most settings from here are considered 'master' settings.
Make sure that under
battery
you have the power saving option disabled.
- Yes, I know that you might be thinking what kind of spirits I was drinking, but trust me, this setting is still in affect when you plug in your laptop into the wall.
- Make sure to check this from time to time, because I found out that this options get reactivated on updates and some other random triggers.
If you notice that your screen is still flickering brightens based on background, just unplug the power cable and plug it back it. This will reset some DPST settings and it will stop doing it. This happens only if you use sleep on your laptop. Full shutdown should be fine
oh my god thank you so much. such a simple solution and it worked!! :) thanks

Late in the day, but I've just been entertained by this problem. After reviewing quite a few posts, none of which fixed the issue for me, I noticed that -
- Right click on desktop, select Graphics Properties
- Select Display
- Changed Refresh Rate from 40hz to 60hz and Saved the profile
Fixed the issue with Windows 10 contrast issue instantly for me on a Dell M4700 Precision.
Hope this helps folks.

What is the model of your laptop? What do you mean by "brightness change"? Does it changes according to ambient light conditions / battery level? Does it change when you leave your laptop idle for a few minutes? Please add these to your question (don't answer in a comment) to help us understand your issue.
