I've used something similar in the past, but found some issues when Windows would update etc.

I'm using a program called AutoHDR, which seems to be doing the trick. Hopefully one day DisplayFusion will include the options, as it would be great to reduce the number of extra programs running/incorporate the functions into DF scripts. ]]> RE: Trigger to enable and disable HDR? https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/trigger-to-enable-and-disable-hdr/?ID=7ae2973c-6a40-4f36-93c5-2f0e0358d971#4 Sat, 28 Aug 2021 16:15:16 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/trigger-to-enable-and-disable-hdr/?ID=7ae2973c-6a40-4f36-93c5-2f0e0358d971#4 DisplayFusion Not the best option, but a script work around if anyone is interested. When the settings window changes between windows versions, you probably have to tweak the tab movements.

Paste in a text file and rename with the .VBS extension.

Code
Copy
Select All

Set oShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")

'close settings window to start fresh
oShell.Run("""ms-settings:display""")
WScript.Sleep 1000
oShell.SendKeys "%{F4}"

'open settings, set to correct page
oShell.Run("""ms-settings:display""")
WScript.Sleep 1000
oShell.AppActivate "settings"
WScript.Sleep 1000

'select "windows hd color settings"
oShell.SendKeys "{TAB}"
WScript.Sleep 50
oShell.SendKeys " "

WScript.Sleep 1000

'select "choose display" drop down and move to the top and select primary display
oShell.SendKeys "{TAB}"
WScript.Sleep 50
oShell.SendKeys "{TAB}"
WScript.Sleep 50
oShell.SendKeys " "
WScript.Sleep 50
oShell.SendKeys "{UP}"
WScript.Sleep 50
oShell.SendKeys "{UP}"
WScript.Sleep 50
oShell.SendKeys "{UP}"
WScript.Sleep 50
oShell.SendKeys "{UP}"
WScript.Sleep 50
oShell.SendKeys " "

WScript.Sleep 1000

'select "use hdr" toggle
oShell.SendKeys "{TAB}"
WScript.Sleep 50
oShell.SendKeys " "

WScript.Sleep 4000

'done
oShell.SendKeys "%{F4}"

Sorry! ]]> Trigger to enable and disable HDR? https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/trigger-to-enable-and-disable-hdr/?ID=7ae2973c-6a40-4f36-93c5-2f0e0358d971 Sun, 11 Oct 2020 12:34:38 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/trigger-to-enable-and-disable-hdr/?ID=7ae2973c-6a40-4f36-93c5-2f0e0358d971 DisplayFusion Hi all,

Having an issue with 1 app that hates HDR, but I keep forgetting to turn it off and then on when the program closes. Any way to automate this with a script?
