Remarks
Introduced in the May Moment update for Windows 11, Version 22H2, Build 22621.
We recommend using the AdaptiveDimming APIs instead of the AttentionAwareDimming APIs (IsAttentionAwareDimmingSupported, IsAttentionAwareDimmingEnabled), which are now obsolete.
The user can specify their preferred dimming behavior in the System settings (see Launch the Windows Settings app).
