Well, it does not appear. Nothing in the control panel, as shown.

Check Power Plan Settings:

- Ensure that the brightness settings are correctly configured there.
Reinstall Graphics Drivers:
- Uninstall the current graphics drivers through Device Manager, then reinstall them. You might need to use the generic drivers temporarily to fix the brightness control.
Reset Power Schemes:
- Open Command Prompt as administrator and run the command:
  powercfg -restoredefaultschemes
- This resets power plans to default, which might restore missing settings.
Consider Third-Party Tools:
- If the built-in adjustments are not working, consider using third-party software like f.lux for controlling screen brightness. These tools can sometimes offer additional control over display settings.

If none of these steps work, consider reaching out to Microsoft Support for further assistance or checking if there are known issues with your specific hardware configuration. If you need more help, just let me know!
