Start xdr-boost from the desktop, Start menu, or the folder where you saved it.
When you open xdr-boost for the first time, set it up with the controls on the main screen.
A simple first setup looks like this:
- Choose your display
- Turn on the mode you want
- Adjust brightness or HDR settings
- Save your settings if the app offers a save option
- Test the screen with a video, photo, or normal desktop view
If you use a laptop, test it with the lid open and closed to make sure the display stays stable in the way you want.
xdr-boost is built to make display control easier for everyday use.
Common features include:
- Simple brightness control
- HDR toggle support
- Quick access from a small app window
- Settings that stay easy to find
- Display behavior that stays consistent after sleep or lid close
Use xdr-boost when you want your screen to stay comfortable and easy to view.
Typical use cases:
- Working in a bright room
- Watching video on a laptop screen
- Using HDR content
- Switching between power modes
- Reopening a laptop after sleep or closing the lid
Most users only need a few controls.
Look for options like these:
- Brightness slider
- HDR on and off switch
- Display refresh option
- Start with Windows setting
- Minimize to tray setting
If the app has a tray icon, you can open it from the small icons near the clock on the taskbar.
For the smoothest use, keep xdr-boost in a folder that you will not move often.
Good choices:
- Downloads
- Desktop
- Documents
- A new folder named xdr-boost
If you move the app after setup, make sure any shortcuts still point to the right file.
To get the latest version, visit the same download page again:
Then check for a newer release or updated file and replace the old version with the new one.
If xdr-boost does not start, try these steps:
- Right-click the file and choose Run as administrator
- Check that the file finished downloading
- Make sure Windows did not block the file
- Restart your PC and try again
- Close other display tools that may conflict with it
If the screen still looks wrong, open the app and return the settings to their default values, then test again.
Use these tips to get the best result:
- Turn HDR on only when your display supports it
- Set brightness to a level that feels clear but not harsh
- Test changes in a normal app, not just on the desktop
- If your laptop battery drops too fast, lower brightness a little
- If the image looks washed out, adjust HDR and brightness together
