Microsoft has released a monthly update to Windows 11 that improves HDR support, allowing users to stream HDR content from apps like Netflix without enabling HDR for the entire OS. The KB5058499 update also lets users independently control Dolby Vision support. These changes address previous difficulties users faced, particularly given HDR's inconsistent performance on Windows. Many users prefer to keep HDR disabled due to compatibility issues, opting instead to enable HDR only within specific applications or games using keyboard shortcuts.
These new options are great for people who simply disable HDR in Windows because of its patchy support.
Microsoft is rolling out a monthly update to Windows 11 that includes some important updates to HDR support in the operating system.
Once it's installed, you can now toggle the ability to stream HDR video option even when HDR is disabled in Windows.
I personally disable HDR in Windows and use the keyboard shortcut to enable it in games that properly support it.
