What is Night Mode for Windows?

Night Mode for Windows

If you are often working in front of the computer during nighttime for long hours, it is recommended that you find a way to protect your eyes from the blue screen light. Of course, you can adjust the brightness level for any of your monitors from the Windows Settings and even toggle the night light on to help you sleep better after leaving the computer. Night Mode for Windows is a lightweight application that offers an alternative, providing a small utility that allows changing the brightness level from the system tray.

Once you run Night Mode for Windows, the application goes right into the system tray area, where it sits quietly, waiting for you to use it whenever you need to. Right-clicking on this icon reveals a menu that displays a list of the brightness levels available, from 0% to 100%, with a 5% or a 10% step. By default, when launching Night Mode for Windows, the monitor is set to 60% dimming level, so the light is pretty dim. This initial brightness level can be changed by adding an argument in percent (without "%") when running the application.

For your convenience, the application ca be controlled via a few key combinations: CTRL+WIN+[key], where "key" is F11 to decrease brightness, F12 to increase brightness, F9 to maximum dim the screen, F10 to change brightness to maximum.

This tiny application allows you to dim your computer screen quickly and easily, so as to avoid eye strain during nighttime. It is one of those small apps that you don’t necessarily need but is useful and comfortable to have around.
