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.

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 تنظیمات > سیستم > نمایش دادن کلیک کنید و تنظیمات نور شب.
