    I have an AUO 1496 panel. After win update to spring release (1803) brightness control stopped working. Microshit said they know and I should wait for the fall (1809) update. Now...its 1809 and still same ****.
    I need a monitor.inf (driver) for this panel before microshit and windows spy os changed the registries.
    Panel model is B173QTN01.4 (AUO1496) .
    Thank you all who would read and pass the info.

    I don't have it, but i have an idea on how you might get it.

    If you can get your hands on 1709 or 1703, install it to a different disk and grab it from there and try and reload it into current main OS disk?
