Please make sure to follow the rules noted below in the side bar. This is an unofficial, community-run subreddit. That’s a problem that nobody but the most technically competent tinkerer is going to solve themselves, so it’s time for a visit to the repair shop.Escape from Tarkov is a hardcore and realistic online first-person action RPG/Simulator with MMO features and a story-driven walkthrough currently in development by Battlestate Games. If the screen is very dark, almost impossible to see in a normal room, then there’s a chance the backlight has failed. On a Mac, click the Apple menu, select System Preferences, select the Display icon, click on the Night Shift tab and select ‘Off’ from the schedule drop-down menu. In Windows, night mode can be deactivated by clicking on the speech bubble-like icon in the bottom-right corner of the screen and selecting the Night Light icon. This is a relatively new feature in PCs and Macs that is meant to reduce the amount of blue light belting out of your screen, which has been linked with sleeplessness. If your screen hasn’t so much dimmed, but gone a funny yellow colour, you may have accidentally activated the night mode.
You should see an Adaptive Brightness setting here, which you can switch off. On the next screen select the advanced settings option and then click the + sign next to Display. In Control Panel, search for Power Options, then click Change Plan Settings. If you wish to turn this off, first unplug the laptop from the power adapter, and then open the Windows Control Panel (search for it if you don’t know where it lives).
Normally, this is a good thing, but we’ve seen it behave erratically on some models. Some fancier laptops have dynamic brightness, which use sensors to detect the level of ambient light and adjust brightness accordingly. (Read our tips on improving battery life in Windows 10 here.) Untick that, but beware that your battery life will be shortened as a result. In there you should find a box ticked that says “Lower screen brightness while in battery saver”. Type “battery saver” into the Windows 10 search bar and open the Battery Saver Settings. Windows’ power management settings reduce screen brightness to save batteries when you’re unchained from the mains, but if the screen dimming is too aggressive you can change that. If your laptop screen is dim when you’re running on battery power, that’s what meant to happen.
