Game is too dark in windowed mode adjusting gamma does nothing (using 2 monitors)

[TripSin]

So I haven't played in a while, come in to find the game is darker than I would like when in windowed mode and adjusting gamma does nothing. I imagine this has something to do with the fact that I started using two monitors. Anyone know of a solution? Thanks in advance.

If you play in windowed you have to adjust the monitor directly.

But of course you need to adjust back if you want to play other games after. =)

Oh goodness, I am the exact opposite, the game is way too bright and it messes up my entire brightness for my PC when I launch the eq client. I just made a post with my details.

When I go to advanced settings I don't have a color calibration link and I don't see anything to adjust brightness. When I click the thing that says change brightness in the settings IT SENDS ME TO A FUCKING BING SEARCH RESULTS WEB PAGE which tells me that I need to go the action center to adjust the brightness slider BUT THERE'S NO FUCKING SLIDER

goddamn I hate Windows 10 so. much.
