Windows Always Starts with Night Light Mode On, Even When Disabled (Found solution)

Hi Rico,

There are various reasons why you're experiencing the issue. We need to get more information for us to know what is causing the issue. Please answer these questions:

• When did the issue start?
• Were there any changes made on your computer before encountering the issue?
• Just to clarify, what is the OS Build of your Windows 10?
• How did you turn off the Night Light?
• Did you set up a schedule for the Night Light?

We'll be waiting for your response.

-Issue started approximately two weeks ago (First time I ever enabled Night Light to see what it is)

-No changes were made to the computer

-OS build is 15063

-I turned off nightlight by clicking on notification icon bottom right corner of my screen, brought up Action Center, then clicked on box that says "Night Light" to enable it, then same box again to disable it.

-I have no schedule set up for night light

I just rebooted my machine, night light mode is clearly on for me, and this is what the Action Center looks like. You can see Night Light box is not highlighted so it should be off, not on.

This is what my Night Light scheduling settings looks like:

Just to clarify, what is the exact OS Build of your Windows 10? We need the exact build of your Windows 10 for us to know if you have the latest version. To know how to get the OS Build of your Windows 10, follow these steps:

1. Click the Windows logo (Start button).
2. Click the gear icon (Settings).
3. Select System.
4. On the left pane, choose About.

After following the steps above, you'll see the exact OS Build of your Windows 10 on the right pane.

We're looking forward to your reply.

Build is 15063.483.

Since you already have the latest OS Build of Windows 10, we need to create a new account on your computer for us to know if there is an issue with your current user profile. To know how to create a new user account, follow these steps:

1. Right click the Windows logo (Start button).
2. Choose Command Prompt (Admin).
3. In the command prompt window, type net user [username] /add, and then press Enter.
4. In the command prompt window again, type net localgroup administrators [username] /add, and then press Enter.
5. Restart your computer, and then log in to the new account.
   
6. Using the new account, enable the Night light settings.
7. Disable the Night light settings, and then restart your computer.
