Losing gamma setting with monitor sleep

Power Options is set to send my monitor to sleep after 45 minutes of inactivity. Problem is the gamma setting is out of whack when I wake the monitor (too dark). I have to reboot to correct it. In fact, it corrects immediately after I select restart, even while the home screen is still showing. Is there anything that will keep the gamma setting from changing with monitor sleep or that will correct it other than having to resort to restart? Also, would the problem be less likely to happen if I used Nvidia Control Panel for settings with my Nvidia 1050 Ti rather than using Windows Display to set the color profile?

Are you talking really about something called Gamma settings , or this is how you describe windows Brightness ?

- With Brightness being the issue I suggest following instructions here Enable or Disable Adaptive Brightness in Windows 10 where you need to disable adaptive brightness .

- With Gamma settings however please provide a screen shot of whatever Tool or Control Panel you use to set it rather .

Thanks for responding, nIGHTmAYOR.

Gamma. Brightness and gamma settings are different.

I'm talking about the gamma setting in Windows Display Color Calibration, resulting in an sRGB color profile. Hence, my question about whether it's better to use that or Nvidia Control Panel for such settings.
