Constant exposure to blue light from electronic devices can cause visual problems and ruin your sleep pattern. On Windows 10, the Night Light feature prevents digital eye strain and improves sleep quality by reducing blue light emission from your computer’s display.
Despite its benefits, there are times when the feature malfunctions. If you’re on this page because Windows 10 Night Light is not working on your Windows 10 computer, try the potential solutions listed below.
1. Check Night Light Schedule
If you configured Windows to activate Night Light automatically but it doesn’t, check your Night Light schedule settings and confirm the hours. Go to সেটিংস > পদ্ধতি > প্রদর্শন এবং ক্লিক রাতের আলো সেটিংস.
Choosing Windows’ preset “Sunset to sunrise” schedule means Night Light will come on by 7:30 PM every day and go off 6:30 AM in the morning. If you choose to set your own custom hours, make sure you enter the accurate time in the provided boxes.
2. Adjust Night Light Strength
Does your screen look the same after enabling Windows 10 Night Light? Does Windows fail to display a warm color when you toggle on Night Light?
That could be because you’ve reduced the Night Light strength to the minimum. Go to সেটিংস > পদ্ধতি > প্রদর্শন > রাতের আলো সেটিংস এবং সরান শক্তি slider to the right to increase the intensity of the warm color.
3. Turn on Location Services
Night Light is one of the many Windows features that require location access to work optimally. If the preset “Sunset to sunrise” schedule option is greyed out, that’s most likely because location access is disabled on your PC.
যান সেটিংস > গোপনীয়তা > অবস্থান to check your device’s location settings. Click the পরিবর্তন বোতাম এবং টগল অন এই ডিভাইসের জন্য অবস্থান অ্যাক্সেস.
Scroll to the “Allow apps to access your location” section and toggle on the option.
Return to the Night Light settings menu and check if you can use the “Sunrise to sunset” schedule.
4. Check Date and Time Settings
A lot can go wrong on your computer if the date, time, or timezone settings are inaccurate. Your browser may fail to load certain webpages, Microsoft Store won’t download apps, and so on. Other Windows apps and features (Night Light, for example) may also malfunction if your PC’s date & time settings are incorrect.
To prevent these from happening, head to সেটিংস > সময় ও ভাষা > তারিখ সময় and toggle on these two options: স্বয়ংক্রিয়ভাবে সময় সেট করুন এবং স্বয়ংক্রিয়ভাবে সময় অঞ্চল সেট করুন.
পরে, ক্লিক করুন এখনই সিঙ্ক করুন button in the “Synchronize your clock” section. That’ll trigger your computer to obtain accurate date & time information from the Windows Time Server.
5. আপনার কম্পিউটার পুনরায় চালু করুন
If the problem is due to a temporary glitch with your operating system, rebooting your computer might help restore Night Light to normalcy. Before you restart your device, try signing out of your profile/account and signing back in—press the Windows button, click on your profile icon, and select সাইন আউট. Reboot your computer if Windows 10 Night Light still doesn’t work when you sign back in.
6. Update or Reinstall Display Driver
You may encounter difficulties using Night Light if your computer’s graphic/display driver is outdated, broken, or buggy. If the problem persists after trying the recommendations above, update or reinstall your graphics/display drive.
বিঃদ্রঃ: Windows 10 Night Light does not work on devices using a DisplayLink graphic driver or Microsoft’s Basic Display driver. If you use either of these drivers, visit your PC manufacturer’s website to download a different graphics driver.
Right-click the Start Menu icon (or press Windows key + X) and select ডিভাইস ম্যানেজার on the Quick Access menu.
Expand the Display adapters section, right-click the graphics driver, and select ড্রাইভার আপডেট করুন.
ক্লিক আপডেট হওয়া ড্রাইভার সফ্টওয়্যারের জন্য স্বয়ংক্রিয়ভাবে অনুসন্ধান করুন.
Windows will scan your computer and the internet for an updated version of your graphics driver. If Windows doesn’t find any available update, return to the Device Manager and uninstall the graphics driver.
Don’t worry, you won’t break anything on your computer; Windows will automatically reinstall a clean, error-free copy of the driver when you reboot your PC.
Right-click on the driver and select আনইনস্টল ডিভাইস.
Leave the “Delete the driver software for this device” option unchecked and click আনইনস্টল.
Restart your computer when prompted to. Before you click Yes, make sure you close all active programs so you don’t lose unsaved data.
7. Reset the Windows 10 Night Light Settings
Is the Night Light option grayed out in the Action Center and Windows Settings? Have you tried all possible fixes but to no avail? Head to the Windows Registry and reset the Night Light functionality.
বিঃদ্রঃ: The Windows Registry is a database of sensitive files and settings. Damaging any registry file may corrupt the Windows OS and cause your computer to malfunction. Therefore, it’s important to make a backup of the registry before you attempt to make changes to the registry. Refer to this guide on backing up and restoring the Windows Registry.
Launch the Windows Run box (Windows key + R), type regedit in the dialog box, and click OK.
Paste this path below in the Registry Editor’s address bar and press প্রবেশ করান.
HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionCloudStoreStoreDefaultAccountCloud
On the left sidebar, locate and delete these two subfolders: $$windows.data.bluelightreduction.bluelightreductionstate এবং $$windows.data.bluelightreduction.settings.
Simply right-click on the folder(s) and select মুছে ফেলা.
রেজিস্ট্রি এডিটর বন্ধ করুন এবং আপনার কম্পিউটার পুনরায় আরম্ভ করুন।
8. আপডেট উইন্ডোজ
Apparently, there’s a known bug in version 1903 of Windows 10 that causes the Night Light to malfunction. Type winver in the Windows Search bar and press প্রবেশ করান to check the Windows version installed on your device.
If you’re running version 1903 (or older), go to সেটিংস > আপডেট এবং সুরক্ষা > উইন্ডোজ আপডেট to update your computer.
Even if you aren’t running version 1903, you should still install any official update available in the settings menu. Keeping your computer updated at all times can improve performance and fix other hidden issues.
