About

VistaCare is a tiny single-exe Windows tray app that dims every monitor below its hardware

minimum by scaling the GPU gamma ramp. Because gamma is applied at the final display stage,

the cursor, taskbar, Start menu and fullscreen apps all dim uniformly - no overlay, and none

of the bright-cursor / bright-taskbar bugs that overlay dimmers have. Includes a tray slider,

brightness presets, global hotkeys, a pause toggle, and a configurable evening auto-start.

Security

No known CVEs for VistaCare.

Coverage is best-effort and depends on a winget package mapping to an NVD CPE entry. Absence here is not a guarantee of safety.
