Windows 10: Images Desaturated

Before you say it, no, I am not using HDR.When I take a screenshot in this case with the snipping tool, but it doesn't matter what I use It first appears to be normal. Then if I reopen the image in file explorer using the photos app it is desaturated. If I open the photos app normally the photo looks fine in the preview image, but if I open it up it is desaturated. If I upload the image to a website or application like gmail, or discord it will still be desaturated. The only places where it isnt is in the initial snipping tool tab after I take it, the preview of the image in the photos app

All images desaturated when opened in any application... How do I fix this?

I've been working in Autodesk Maya and rendering scenes with Arnold and recently noticed that the saved rendered image files are all desaturated. Not only that, but I've found that every other image I open with the photos app has been desaturated. This has happened with both .jpg and .png files.

There is a period of a few frames upon first opening any image in which the color saturation is correct before becoming desaturated. If I go into the editing mode from the photos app, the color is correct. However, if I open my images in Photoshop, I see that they are still desaturated.

I am completely lost regarding this issue. I am running Windows 10 and have not had this issue until today. I'm wondering if there was a recent update that has messed with the way that color correction operates or how image files are handled. Any help would be much appreciated.

 

Desaturate the task bar icons??

I am going for a totally desaturated, grey, look for my desktop. I've got that as far as I can take it, but, I can't figure out how I can desaturate the icons on the task bar. I can not stand having the task bar automatically hide itself, so I'm stuck.
Hopefully I can get some help here. Here's a screen shot to show what I mean.
