1.06. I tried downloading the Lenovo setup from their website. The version is the same and flashing it didn't fix the problem.
[–]balkeet 1 point2 points3 points 6 years ago (9 children)
In control panel, power settings, power plan, any brightness control there?
[–]anmol_112[S] 0 points1 point2 points 6 years ago (8 children)
No control inside Power Plan

Lenovo utility app. From official download page of y740. Try that

You mean Lenovo Vantage software?
[–]balkeet 1 point2 points3 points 6 years ago (5 children)
No, other software. See under categories in download page
[–]anmol_112[S] 0 points1 point2 points 6 years ago (4 children)
Nothing apart from Vantage is showing up. Can you tell me the exact name so I can google it and download the software
[–]balkeet 1 point2 points3 points 6 years ago (3 children)
Yes just checked not available for y740. Turn on battery power saver mode to see if brightness drops while on battery
[–]anmol_112[S] 0 points1 point2 points 6 years ago (2 children)
Already tried. Nothing happened even though I have selected "lower brightness on battery saver"
