Clicking on the 'Switch LightBulb on/off' button results in the screen brightness percentage increasing/decreasing very slowly while having no effect on the display. There isn't much else to say, as far as I noticed it started before the most recent update.

Have you looked at this: https://github.com/Tyrrrz/LightBulb/wiki/Troubleshooting

[AhmedSHussaini]

Yup, Both my windows and display drivers are up to date.

I'm using a laptop connected to an external monitor, where the laptop display is using the iGPU and the external monitor is using the dGPU. I've tried disabling either one to no effect. Guess I'll just reinstall and see what happens.

[Tyrrrz]

Hmm, it might be an issue of two monitors being powered by different GPUs. Does the gamma change on your main monitor?

[AhmedSHussaini]

No, it doesn't change on either. Previously it was changing on both

[Tyrrrz]

By "previously", what do you mean? Which version did it work on?

[AhmedSHussaini]

v2.4.6 and earlier

[Tyrrrz]

Hmm are you sure? Does it work if you install that version again?

[AhmedSHussaini]

It wasn't, but I reinstalled .Net and it's working again. Think it happened because of the .Net release last week. Thanks for your help!

[Tyrrrz]

Glad it's working again now!
