  1. Color Management in File Explorer


    Hi!


    For quite a few years I have been struggeling with Windows Color Management. Colors do not look ok in Windows File Explorer, much more yellow than in Adobe Creative Suite, Chrome, Mac finder, etc. As a professional photographer working in concert halls and theatres this is quite frustrating. Especially because some of my clients view the photo's in windows file explorer and will not have a correct display.


    I have my monitor calibrated with a Datacolor Spyder but that doesn't have any influence, switching makes no difference. Also the color profile attached to the file makes no difference it happens with both sRGB and Adobe RGB and switching color space in Adobe also doesn't seem to make a difference. The problem seems Windows File Explorer itself.


    Can this be fixed or helped?

    Getting Color Management onto the taskbar and...?


    Hey Edwin, thanks, but let me make sure I got this all right. It seems that only Color Management can be pinned to the task bar...Right? Whereas, the website can only be pinned to the Jump List, and not to the taskbar...Right? If so, good enough as this will still reduce the number of steps needed to change my monitor's color settings.
