There is "dim on disable" which may help...

@herf I'm running Windows 7. The program interface did change about a month or so ago. At first I would try to open f.lux and it would be behind all of the windows. Then it (in its original form) didn't appear at all..Then I noticed there was an f.lux icon in the bottom right hand of the task bar beside the clock. But that now opens a really large interface with useless information. Why couldn't it just stay the way it was? And yes, I will adjust that annoying thing that assumes I'm a complete moron who doesn't know what time to get up.

Thank you for the response but it would be far better if you just rolled it back to the previous version that had nothing wrong with it at all.

We have a small minority of our users (<<1%) who try to avoid all blue light due to headaches or other reasons.

We don't think this is a good idea for most people (as explained in my 2015 post), so this is a rather hidden feature for those people to get more extreme settings during the day. By default, we limit the range.

But right now we don't know of a way to make a white screen any brighter.

Wow, same question solved here.

Disable "Backwards Alarm Clock" to disable notifications about bedtime.

Apparently it is not implemented. Can we expect a vignette mode anytime soon?

Is there a way to fix this problem as it relates to videos played from iTunes? I figured out the Chrome fix, but it still happens in iTunes unless I disable f.lux.

Yes I would look in the TV/monitor settings next.
If the color profile is reset and f.lux isn't running, there isn't much more to do on our end.

yes. i tried to download it again but my mac said it was already downloaded

You can fake your Location in f.lux to force f.lux between night and day modes, and you can fake your wake up time as well to move f.lux between bedtime and awake mode. That way, you can quickly change all 3 settings.

Really, the checkbox should take care of it...

This is happening to me. Running Flux 39.983 on MacOS 10.12.6. Nightshift schedule set to "Off".

Screen darkens seemingly randomly even when Flux is stopped. If I turn Flux on and then Quit it, the screen brightens again for a few minutes, then darkens.

rebooting didn't help.

i reinstalled and it appears to be working normally now
