  1. Display keeps showing random colours


    Whenever I open an app, my laptop screen shows random colours like in the image. The app keeps working, and when I try to screenshot the display from my laptop, I get the normal app appearance instead of the colours. To make it go away, I have to turn my laptop off and then on again, although sometimes it requires a full restart. Also, this usually happens when I open an app, but sometimes it can just happen out of nowhere.I have looked online for many solutions restarting, updating software/drivers, troubleshooters but nothing has worked.

    Whenever I open an app, my laptop screen shows random colours (like in the image). The app keeps working, and when I try to screenshot the display from my laptop, I get the normal app appearance instead of the colours. To make it go away, I have to turn my laptop off and then on again, although sometimes it requires a full restart. Also, this usually happens when I open an app, but sometimes it can just happen out of nowhere.

    I have looked online for many solutions (restarting, updating software/drivers, troubleshooters) but nothing has worked.

  3. Display resolution keeps changing

    Hi Rick,

    It might be caused by a faulty driver that's why your display resolution keeps changing. We
    suggest that you uninstall and reinstall the display driver, see steps below:

    • Press Windows key + X and click on
      Device Manager.
    • For graphics cards, expand the Display adapters category, right click your graphics card and select Uninstall.
    • Restart your PC and Windows will attempt to reinstall the driver.

    Let us know if you have any other questions.

    Colour profiles not showing in notification bar

    Hi Miranda,

    Color management profiles might not work properly due to an incompatible display driver. For us to isolate the issue, kindly answer the below questions:

    • What is the make and model of your device?
    • What is the build number and version of your Windows?
    • Can you enumerate the troubleshooting steps that you have performed?

    In the meantime, we suggest that you install the display driver in compatibility mode by following these steps:

    • Download the latest audio driver from your device manufacturer's website.
    • Right-click on the setup file of the driver and select Properties.
    • Click on Compatibility tab.
    • Place a check mark next to Run this program in Compatibility mode
      and select latest Windows
      version
      from the drop down list.
    • Let the driver install and then check the functionality.

    Reply to us with the information, so we can assist you better.
