Windows 10: Laptop Colour Calibration Resetting After Sleep/Awake

Hi there,

(Update: check the second post)
I've got a ThinkPad W530 that I recently upgraded from Windows 8.1 to Win 10, and soon after the upgrade did a reset. The problem is my colour calibration unit is doing its job but the calibration doesn't "stick" after a longer period of sleeping. It was working fine on Win8. I installed the driver myself from Lenovo's website, and it's one from 2014, made for Windows up to 8. As far as I could find, there's no later driver (yet?).

Is there anything I can do you could think of?

Surface Pro 3 loses display calibration upon rotation

Hi Philipp

No, I do not experience color fading at random times.

Only when I rotate the Surface, screen color calibration 'resets' to factory settings. But, when I press Power button (and Surface so go to sleep), and, after that, I awake it again, the color calibration I configured is back again (normal state)... If I
rotate the device again, it resets again (same behavior).

This bug started 2 weeks ago (I guess)... and many people are experiencing the same, at the same time. So, it's a W10 update bug.

 

How do I reset the colour calibration of my two screens to the default colours?

How do I reset the colour calibration of my two screens to the default colours?

 

Update: I found it's actually not related to sleep. If I sleep the laptop from the start menu or by the keyboard sleep button, then it awakes with calibrated colours. Though if I put it to sleep by closing the lid, it awakes uncalibrated. So I changed the settings to only turn off the screen when the lid is closed, and sure enough it messes up the calibration. Any clues?

Also to the mods: Could you move the thread to a more appropriate forum? I realise this might not be the most suitable one.
