Brightness issue on Aspire E5-511
After upgrading Windows 10 on my computer, i noticed that the brightness settings are wrong, they seem to be reversed, trying to lower the brightness increases it instead, and the Fn keys do the same. I tried to update the drivers but everything is up to date.
Also it seems that the adaptive brightness option is on even though its deactivated.
Update: It seems to be fixed when i reboot the pc, and it works fine until i shut it down, but the next time i boot it it happens all over again.

Same here.
This only happens with Fast Start-up enabled (in the Power settings).
Otherwise it behaves properly.

I have the same issue. I have narrowed it down to the function of the bright/dark setting is reversing. IE. Screen is black but brightness set to max. I hit the darker key and the screen gets brighter. It's an intermittent issue. I've verified that I have the most up to date driver for the display. I tried to chat with Acer Suport which was a lesson in futility. I don't think the agent could understand me. I do know that the agent was very good at spelling OKAY.
I am going to try and work with Microsoft and see if I can get a resolution. I will share if I have any success.

Acer have released BIOS 1.10 which supposedly fixes the issue:
"Release Note:
Update GOP driver to modify the screen backlight behavior is conversely in Win10"0 -
Thanks for the heads up Philrandal, i updated said BIOS and everything works right now. Hopefuly it stays like that for a while now
