Hello mate, :alien:

The brightness slider would only be available for built-in displays like for a laptop or tablet.

For now, you can check using the tutorial below to see if it may help.

The PS command won't work if your display's driver doesn't support WMI methods. Some don't.
For example, if I run inside a VM -- this command fails. On my real laptop, it works.

Before you can adjust the brightness you must have proper graphics drivers installed. In some old systems, Windows Update cannot find a graphics driver with the first attempt, so initially it installs Microsoft Basic Display Adapter. This is software-only with zero hardware acceleration, supports only standard resolutions (800x600, 1024x768x 1280x1024 etc) and doesn't support changing the screen brightness. This wouldn't be the problem if the default brightness level was 100%, but unfortunately for most laptops the default level is 50% and the screen is annoyingly dim. Update your graphics drivers, preferably from manufacturer (Intel, nVidia, AMD), not Windows Update, and you should be able to adjust the screen brightness. Another annoying bug I have seen is that some laptops (usually with an AMD card) have low brightness, even if you set brightness to maximum with the generic AMD graphics drivers from Windows Update. To fix that update to the latest official graphics drivers directly from AMD.
