Display Brightness/Contrast Control Panel


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hi all,

I've done a quick search but haven't been able to find anything about this specifically.

Whilst extremely bored at work today, I noticed that in windows there's a file called display.cpl.xml that contains XML pertaining (in my eyes at least) to controls for display brightness and contrast.

Conveniently, I also "discovered" a file in the same directory called root.cpl.xml - the xml file that lists the available control panels in "settings".

So, I put two and two together and added the following line to root.cpl.xml:

<cpl-link href="display.cpl.xml" res="30017"/>

Alas, whilst this lists "Display" as an option in settings (after closing settings first from task manager), it won't load - I simply get the error: "The settings could not be opened."

Any ideas?
