      Content adaptive brightness?

      b,

      I see now you recommended this setting earlier but somehow I missed it.

      I’m not sure if my dimming problem on the Lenovo Yoga 7i was the same as yours, but it quit for me when I went to settings > display and unchecked “Help improve battery by optimizing the content shown and brightness.” in the drop down menu under Brightness.

      This fixed it for me!!

      Thanks so much, Tiny.

      Perhaps it’s a Lenovo thing rather than Windows. What model is it?

      There’s a recent critical update for Thinkpads:

      Lenovo Power and Battery Driver for Windows 11 (Version 21H2 or later), 10 (Version 1703 or Later) – ThinkPad

      It is a Lenovo Yoga 7i

      Thanks

      I just did a bunch of typing in Word. As I type the brightness varies up and down. When I stop typing, it stays at the highest brightness level. Weird and distracting.

      I’ve also tried updating the Display Driver but it says I am up to date.

      In that dialog it offers to check Win Updates for other drivers. I found 4 called Lenovo System update, did all 4 but no help.

      I tried the setting suggested by PKCano, did not help.
      I followed all the links suggested above, but still persists in happening.

      The screen changes brightness, going dim a bit, then coming back up, on its own but it happens when I perform an action like deleting or moving a file. But it is not repeatable, I can do the same action again and it may not dim the next time.

      From reading some of the links above, this seems like the adaptive brightness feature, but when I look in Advanced Power Setting/Display, the Enable Adaptive Brightness setting is not shown there.

      When I just opened Control Panel, the screen dimmed for about a second and then came back up. Repeat that action and it does not happen.

      When I click Start, it dims and stays dimmed until I move the mouse. But repeat that action, nada.

      This only happens when I am on battery power, but it is not related to low battery, since it happens at all battery levels, even 90% charge

      Thanks for information.

      We eventually were able to futz around enough that we finally found the right combination that allowed us to remove Hello. Can’t say I know exactly what is was though. But all is good now. Thanks

    • in reply to: Windows Hello = Windows Hell! #2524068

      Thanks for that link.

      I have already done a similar process. But when I clicked on “Sign in with a local account instead.” and entered the name I wanted for it, that is when it put me into the loop where it wanted me to setup  Windows Hello and required the previous Windows Hello PIN which we don’t have. And telling it “I forgot the PIN” just kept going around in a circle and asking for the PIN again.

    • in reply to: Microsoft 365 Basic is a new $1.99 a month subscription #2520829

      When using Outlook online with this Basic version, can you access email accounts that are not Microsoft accounts?   ie      me@mydomain dot com

      Thanks

      But since I see you said you want to update it occasionally, some kind of 3rd party software might be a better choice anyway.

       

    • in reply to: Looking for software to convert PST file … #2514384

      I couldn’t answer that with confidence so I just tried an export/import test and it is giving me errors. I’ve tried it 3 different ways with small test folders/subfolders but it keeps failing. So I don’t have an answer for you. Sorry

    • in reply to: Looking for software to convert PST file … #2514367

      You can pick and choose which folders you want to export

    • in reply to: Looking for software to convert PST file … #2514366

      I know that the calendar and contacts are done separately.

      But I’ve never had a problem doing all the emails.

      Is it balking at the size or quantity of emails you have?

    • in reply to: Looking for software to convert PST file … #2514362

      I current have Outlook 2013 and have a huge archive in PST format that I would like to convert to something that can imported to Mozilla

      Why not use your current Outlook to export the emails to a .csv file?
      You should be able to do custom mapping of the fields if that is necessary.

      Contacts would have to be exported in another step.

      Edit: I just re-read your OP where you said you want to update it occasionally. Some kind of 3rd party software might be a better choice then.
