The ability to adjust the brightness from your computer can be very useful, but many users have reported that this option is not available in Windows 10. One of the reasons this happens is because of your old video driver. These speakers are no longer stable in terms of display configuration.
Your monitor driver can also be disabled, automatically prompting Windows to update to earlier versions. These versions do not usually support brightness changes. In some cases, the brightness settings may have been removed. If you can't find the option to change the brightness anywhere on your taskbar or Notification Center, here are the methods to help you fix the problem.
