Fall Creators Update Colour Calibration Issue


Hello folks, first post on here.

My problem is the Fall Creators Update seems to have an issue with colour calibration - I have quite an old calibration tool by modern standards which is a Pantone Huey Pro, but it's worked perfectly from Windows 7 until the FC Update. Now the ICC profile won't stick and the screen is very bright with a magenta cast. I see other people are having problems with colour calibration with this update.

I've gone into Task Scheduler and tried disabling the Calibration Loader in 'Windows Colour System', then gone through the calibration procedure again as other forum posts have suggested, and all looks good until the moment comes to save the profile and exit the calibration procedure, then Windows reverts to the bright screen with magenta cast and loses the calibrated settings.

I'm a photographer so I'll need to get this sorted otherwise I can't accurately edit my photos. I've previously rolled back Windows but within days the FC Update forcibly installs again. Very frustrating!

Can anyone help me please?

Colour Calibration

Hi Susan,

What's the exact HP model you have? I'll research the model and find you the instructions we need to get the colour calibration done.

Let me know!

Colour Calibration

Hi, thank you for your reply, it's a HP Notebook Device Name: LAPTOP9S8AUIJM and I'm running Windows 10.

I know how to get to the Calibrator and even how to work through it manually but I need the screen colour to be spot on as I take a lot of Photos which I put up for sale.

Thank You

Susan
