I'm currently working on a script that creates a tray icon that allows the user to adjust screen brightness through menu options. The source code, written in python 3.6.8, can be found as a paste HERE. There seems to be an error message coming up when trying to select one of the brightness options, seen HERE. I did some reading and found that the error I'm getting (0x8004100c) refers to a feature or operation not being supported. Are there any workarounds available for this?
