wa4253,

Below are the key combinations to adjust the brightness of the screen.

Fn + F4 Decreases brightness on the integrated display only (not on an external monitor).

Fn + F5 Increases brightness on the integrated display only (not on an external monitor).


Thank You,

On most laptops there is a "Fn" button. There is also brightness buttons that are activated while holding "Fn" and the brightness button, which in most cases is located at the top of the keyboard shaped like a circle with a light and dark side or shaped like a sun with a up or down arrow.
