    All videos on windows are in a weird grey color


    I updated my PC to the latest windows update and opened youtube and found that all my videos are in a weird grey color. Initially, I thought this was just an issue with youtube itself but later when I was browsing other websites I encountered the same issue on EVERY SINGLE VIDEO. I've been troubleshooting the last few days but I'm just at a loss. Help would be appreciated!

    :)

    Colors looking grey in Windows 10

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    I understand that the colors look grey on your computer. I would suggest you to check the color filters in Settings and see if that helps. Kindly, refer the steps mentioned below:



    1. Press Windows key + U, to open
      Ease of Access Settings      .
    2. Now, select Color filters from the left pane.
    3. Under Use color filters, toggle the switch to
      off for Turn on color filters.
    4. Clear the check box for Allow the shortcut key to toggle filter on or off.


    Let us know how it goes.



    Regards,

    Nikhar Khare

    Streamed videos only show green, grey or blue colors, but dont show yellow

    it started with netflix acting up, everything seemed grey and green, but i just though it was part of the show, then it went over to videos on facebook, who only showed grey, green and blue colors

    the strangest is that music videos with pictures show normal colors. and im not experiencing this with downloaded videos, unless i play them using VLC media player. if i use the windows 10 app ''movies'' the colors also change and turn grey/green/blue

    ive tried restarting, updating the video card and whatnot but nothing seems to help

    All videos on windows are in a weird grey color

    Windows 10 turned into grey colors

    I have windows 10 professional installed for almost 4 months now. I have not activated it yet.

    Today while using it and all of the sudden, the screen turned into grey scale colors everywhere.

    At first, I thought it's a hardware or driver's issue.

    But when I lock the screen or restart, the login page is in colors as usual.

    The busy cursor (arrow with rotating circle) is in color.

    So, I it's neither hardware nor driver's issue.

    Any suggestions?
