a software to change brightness in windows with mouse scroll/wheel

first of to clear things up.

the term brightness might not be what I am looking for. I have used many software which change the actual brightness or gamma, but they differ from changing brightness level through window's "adjust brightness level" via battery or power at notification icon. the adjustment through window's brightness level is what i'm looking for.

does anyone know of a software to adjust brightness level with mouse scroll/ mouse wheel?

each time adjusting it via window i'd have to:
- click on notification area
- click battery or power icon
- click adjust screen brightness
- click on scrollbar to the level where I want it
- close the adjust screen brightness window

then if too bright or a bit too dark.. have to repeat all those steps again.

I'd love to have using mouse wheel to scroll up/down to adjust it (ive seen autohotkeys but unsure how it works). does anyone know of a software to do this? taskbar tweaker allows mouse wheel for audio adjustment, something similar.

Win+A to get to action center, then use slider to adjust brightness. How often do you have to do this?

20+ times per day. do this when eye tired, or watching videos in brightroom, dark room, during the day, just waking up etc etc..

it is very inconvenient to do without it. right now I am using a software called screenbrightness wrote by someone else and I set shortcut to 3 different brightness level, but even so its taking up too much space on taskbar toolbar and getting very messy clustered, it'd work if its maybe 6 different brightness level but would have to add more icons making it worse, scroll would solve this quite nicely.

You might also look into using some of the features in Ease of Access.

1.Create 2-4 shortcuts to increase/decrease brightness. Put them on the taskbar or create keyboard shortcuts.

2. Download and install f.lux to adjust brightness based on time of day.

I've tried this one, it is pure brightness I think and not the one im looking for which is different from window's adjust brightness level.

but I just found a software as I was searching google every few months, software is called clickmonitorDDC7.2 from majorgeek and tested its working right now, it also have audio adjustment. thank you guys for the quick response!

"The [level] parameter is brightness value to change. positive value increases the brightness, and negative value decreases the brightness." I've not tried it myself. Let us know how you like the one you found.
