SameBrightnessSharp

Syncs your brightness settings between different battery states (i.e. battery and charging brightness)

Comes with a service version (SameBrightnessService.exe) and regular application version (SameBrightnessSharp.exe)

Installation

I prefer to use the service as it's easier to have manual control over. However, use the application version if you don't have admin privileges.

Application

This file has no interface (you have to use task manager to manually close the process) and can be run without installation but I suggest that you place it in your startup directory.

Manual method

1. Find your startup folder. (Easiest way is to open windows explorer, click on the top bar and type in shell:startup)
2. Place SameBrightnessSharp.exe into the folder.
3. Start the program manually or restart your computer.

Automated

1. Open command prompt as admin
2. Navigate to the folder with the application with cd <directory path>
3. Install the application into the startup directory with SameBrightnessSharp.exe install
4. The application should automatically configure and start itself

Service version (requires admin to install)

1. Open command prompt as admin
2. Navigate to the folder with the application with cd <directory path>
3. Install the service with SameBrightnessService.exe install
4. The service should automatically configure and start itself
