    I have a P75 Creator and the screen dims by itself to a random number, usually in the 9-35% range. I have looks for adaptive brightness controls but there doesnt seem to be any in windows 10 or MSI truecolor.

    Any ideas?

    EDIT: Also happens when the screen turns back on from auto shutoff

    My Titan started doing this after I updated Wimdows to version 1903. I had to go into settings and override automatic brightness and power settings. Can't remember exactly where it was but it was a Windows setting.

    Unfortunately the P75 doesnt have any ambient light sensor so all the auto brightness options don't exist in the settings. The Mystery continues.
