Windows 10: black and white screen on my windows account

black and white screen on my windows account

Instantly my laptop is gone into black and white

Hi,
I suggest you to check whether Apply Color Filter is set off or on. It should be off.

dwm.exe - Black and White Screen

Last night I was using my PC as normal, and went to copy something with CTRL+C. I think I accidentally pressed another key in the process, though (either X or V). Immediately after, my screen turned black and white. I tried restarting, and that did not resolve
my problem (screen was still black and white), so I started to dig deeper. I discovered how to create the problem, and how to stop it. I stopped it by ending the dwm.exe process in Task Manager (This is a Microsoft process, it seems). The process immediately
opened again, but the error didn't occur. All was fine until I went to open my recording software, Dxtory. When I opened it, my screen immediately went black and white again, and remained that way until I ended the dwm.exe process.

Some important things to note:

• I'm not sure if this is a Windows error or a Dxtory error. I've updated Windows (build 16299.19) (Updated before this started occuring), Dxtory (2.0.142), and my Nvidia drivers (387.92).
• Screenshots are black and white as well.
• When I open a program that requires administrator permissions, the prompt is the correct color, even if everything else is black and white.
• This effect is not on the login screen, although I'm not sure if it occurs on other accounts.
• It seems like there might be multiple things that cause the issue, and Dxtory is just one of them (For example, when I logged onto my PC this morning, my screen was black and white, despite Dxtory not being opened)

Can anyone help me? Thanks.

 

Screen stuck in black and white

I have a Lenovo Flex 4 Windows 10 laptop. Additional specifications are listed at the bottom.

I have a very strange problem. My account seems to be stuck in black and white. When I boot the computer, the lock screen is in color. When I log into my account, it is in solely black and white. When I log into another account, color is restored.

I am at a loss. I booted into safe mode and the issue was not resolved. I know it is not a hardware problem, as color would then not appear anywhere.

If anyone has any advice to offer, it would be much appreciated.

EDIT:

I have not found a solution to the problem yet, so the temporary solution I found is to just use another account. Although I don't believe this to be a permanent solution, I am growing increasingly frustrated with using a computer with a black and white screen.

If anyone has any ideas, please let me know. Thanks.

Edit 2:

One more thing which I forgot to mention is that the screenshots appear in black and white. I have tried resetting both of the graphic card control panels to factory defaults, and have also tried fully uninstalling and reinstalling both drivers.
