Windows NIGHT LIGHT Mode and Dolphin - mistertropical - 05-24-2019

After recent Windows 10 May update (1903) Dolphin now deactivates Windows 10 Night Light aka blue-light filter.

I have had this problem before with games (remedied by using 3rd party borderless-window apps aka fake fullscreen) - but Dolphin is overriding the Night Light setting as soon as a game is launched.

I haven't seen any mention of this in Google or on the forum thread search, so any input is appreciated.

Night Light is supposed to turn off when a game is active. But apparently 1903 introduced a bug that is preventing Windows from re-enabling Night Light when the game is closed. Is that the issue you are encountering?

Regardless, Night Light mode isn't really anything that we have control over. Microsoft is aware that Night Light mode is buggy right now (it's in the official known bugs list even!), so hopefully they'll fix it soon.
