As its name clearly states, Desktop Dimmer is a practical, little piece of software that makes it possible for you to adjust your computer screen's brightness beyond the limits of what Windows can offer.

The main highlight of this application is without a doubt the fact that it works with both internal and any number of external screens (at least in theory,) making it ideal for hardcore users that work with multiple displays since it might be easier to set the brightness to a minimum level using this app than it might be actually having to switch them off.

You can get started with this accessible app in mere seconds and with practically no effort on your behalf since the installer automatically takes care of the whole deployment process.

Once installed, quite conveniently, the app integrates itself with your computer's taskbar, making it both unobtrusive and always within easy reach. You will notice that Desktop Dimmer does not have a user-interface per se.

Click the app's icon and you are greeted by a compact slider that allows you to darken your computer's display up to to a threshold of 92% percent. For your convenience, the application can also be asked to automatically launch at system startup, as you are bound to find out by visiting the Preferences section.

Also noteworthy is the fact disconnecting or reconnecting one or multiple displays will not throw this little app off balance. Last but not least, Desktop Dimmer can be deployed on all major operating systems out there, namely Windows, macOS, and Linux.

Taking everything into consideration, Desktop Dimmer is an efficient application that, even though it might not look like much, will surely be appreciated by some user out there that struggle with controlling the brightness levels on multiple displays.
