How can I see on my new laptop if HDR is turned on or not? how to test is HDR is turned on

Also a second issue, I uninstalled the office trial when I first setup win 11 but there is still the office trial programs listed in the start menu. I signed out of the MS account I had to sign in with to install Win 11 and now on local account. Do I need to do anything else to stop MS account ?

Under HDR Video Streaming you should see a Toggle, make sure it's flipped to the On Position.

Thanks I checked that but I think it is grayed out and I can't tell if HDR is on of not. This is what my settings look like.

Your answer is right in front of you.

You power settings are preventing it from being turned on.

No worries. We've all have those moments.

Your brain makes your eyes not see things it doesn't expect.
