Re: why i can't control my brightness in windows 10?

Do you have a laptop and are you using a keyboard shortcut to operate the brightness controls?

I suspect it's a driver issue. Possibly the keyboard driver or the display driver. Please consider creating a login and explaining your system's configuration with a little more detail. That will help us figure out a solution.

I have the same problem, with a Surface Pro 2 4200. Windows is disabling the intel HD family device with code 43 error. I have removed the device, reinstalled it, tried windows provided driver and the more recent driver on intel site. nothing works. It is also stopping me us the HDMI output etc.

Re: why i can't control my brightness in windows 10?

I had same problem tried reinstalling, using older version and many tricks.
But the following setting change worked for me.

1) Go to Device manager
2) Open Monitor option ( Below Mice and other pointing decive)
3) Opening Monitor option will reveal "Generic Pnp monitor"
4) Right click here and select "Enable"
5) Done

See it this works for you.

I experienced something similar.
I used to be able to change brightness on my keyboard on Windows 7. There also was a cool indicator.
Then on Windows 8, nothing worked, couldn't change anything, no indicators or anything. Though it was on max so it was OK with me.
Now on Windows 10, I can change the brightness of the display in the action center, and in the settings app, but no longer on my keyboard.

Strange is all I can say.
