The new version of Windows 10 has a very useful feature that protects your eyes when working at night.
If you are used to sitting up late at the monitor, then you know how unpleasant it is to look at a bright screen in complete darkness. Not only unpleasant, but also harmful to vision. In addition, blue radiation negatively affects the nervous system, causing sleep disturbances.
The Windows 10 Creators Update introduces the Night Light feature to address these issues. To activate it, open "Options" → "System" → "Screen". Here, in the "Brightness and color" section, you need to slide the "Night light" switch.
Here you will also see a link to the settings for the "Night light" mode. They allow you to set the color temperature, as well as the schedule for automatic switching on. At the same time, you can set both a rigid time frame, and depending on the onset of dusk and dawn in your region. In the latter case, location service must be enabled.
The Night Light function will help you avoid eye strain when working, reading or watching movies in low light conditions. It is especially useful for users of tablets running Windows 10 who do not part with their gadget even before bed.
As a reminder, the Windows 10 Creators Update is already available for download. How to download and install it, Lifehacker told in this article.
