      @rseiler thanks - included 18336. hope these workarounds are not delaying a "real" fix somehow!

        @herf It might be just me, but after restarting it doesn't look like it had an effect.

        When I first saw the build #, I read it as 18336 and not 18836, which is what they made it for some reason. Is that possibly the reason?

              F.lux (and Night Light) stopped working on Insider build 18836.
              Hope you can push a workaround soon, my eyes are so used to always having F.lux in the evenings :)

                Ok sorry I missed the note about 18836 not 18336. Pushed two blocks of exclusions just now, agh.

                    Yes, all good again.

                    Things should get really fun soon, since MS is going to continue pushing out 183xx builds while developing 188xx (two different sets of testers).

                      No real updates in current builds on the general issue beyond statements like:

                      "While we’ve done some work to improve night light reliability in this build, we’re continuing to investigate issues in this space."

                      Which I take to mean includes 3rd-party, as f.lux doesn't work in today's 18841.

                      While I haven't tried the other two builds this week--18342 and 18343--they should be in the same boat.

                                Third message about the brightness still not working and still no answer (little up this thread and here) ....

                                Do you plan to fix it ? (details in the link below)

                                Regards

                                  @clem0338 we are still in "workaround" mode since the color controls are not working. Hopefully some fixes soon.

                                    @herf Soon, but not with today's 18845 and (likely) yesterday's 18346.

                                      @rseiler okay I put 18845 under our compatibility just now.

                                        Thankfully I found this thread - my F.lux wasn't working with build 18342 and my eyes were burning out staring at my BLUE screen after dark! I just manually closed F.lux and reopened it and it turned on (PHEW)! So glad to have it back. Hope it's fixed in a new build soon.

                                          Does it make any sense that the workaround mode could possibly cause some black video blotching/tearing in some apps some of the time (Outlook seems to be the main one seeing this)? The black "blocks" randomly flash in a portion of the window and then disappear.

                                          It took me forever to realize that f.lux was doing it, since it's not a constant thing at all, though only since the workaround has been needed.

                                            Well I am not aware that blacks should be affected by it.

                                            I know about some flashing like this in 1803/1809, due to the way the profiles are loaded/reset from Windows. Generally the bug we are working around in the shipping versions is that the system treats any device change (like a bluetooth headset or USB insert) as a "reset" to the color system, and so we have to race around trying to fix it. I don't know what is going on in this new version yet, but I am watching - guess we have another potential release later today.
