What's wrong?
Windows 24H2 Build 26100 has a new option which seems to be confusing the HDR mode toggle.
The new option "Automatically manage color for apps" under "System > Display > Color Management" increases the color range of Windows SDR to HDR levels to remove things like color banding. It works great and is very noticeable throughout the Windows UI but a side effect is all apps think they are already in HDR mode, when they're actually not. With this option enabled the only way I've found to switch Windows HDR mode on and off is with the toggle in Windows settings.

How to reproduce the bug?
Whilst in SDR mode goto "System > Display > Color Management" and enable "Automatically manage color for apps".
Try to enable and disable HDR mode using HDR toggle in LLT.
What is the behavior that you expected?
HDR toggle should show as disabled in SDR mode and HDR mode should be enabled and disabled when toggling on and off.
