Windows 10: Snipping Tool - White Turns Pink in Snapshots

Just overnight, my snapshots using the snipping tool become pink.


It also happens to people I share my screen with on Skype. White or background becomes pink.


Very annoying and snapshot functionality has become useless.


Anyone with a solution?

Snip and Sketch Creates Pink Background

Whenever I create a screenshot, Snip & Sketch creates it with a light pink filter. For example, if the snip is taken of a white background with black text, the snip will produce a pink background with black text. Or, if the snip is of a picture, the picture
snip will have a pink tone.

I have tried reinstalling, resetting, rebooting but the problem keeps coming back. It started with Winver 1809 but never happened with version 1803 and the Snipping Tool. But now, in version 1809, Snipping Tool also produces the same pink results!
