It seems that after installing the update, thedisplayis set to maximum brightness and using the F keys in order to lower the brightness does nothing. The issue was observed and highlighted by a user who posted it onMicrosoft’s forum.

Users said that they updated their laptops toWindows 10 version 1803and right after that thedisplaywas set to maximum brightness.

The user noted thatall essential drivers had been updated, so the lack of driver updates cannot be responsible for the problem.
