  1. The ongoing 10+ year old saga of resetting display calibration settings


    Enough is enough. For the past 10 years I've had to manually re-calibrate my displays in a multi-monitor setup every time:

    - The display goes to sleep

    - I change my display config to include my external TV

    - I start up my computer

    - I exit out of full-screen applications


    Windows keeps resetting my display calibration gamma settings to default.

    Before you ask me to do something about my GPU drivers:

    - This issue persists since Windows Vista, through Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 8.1, Windows 10 Multiple versions of the Enterprise edition

    - This issue persists on multiple different devices re-built my main PC 6 times since, with different GPU configurations AMD and nVidia

    - I'm not alone, I've scoured the web for a possible solution - but all I see is frustrated users being told by Microsoft to "reinstall drivers" lol


    Can we please for the love of god finally get a solution to this problem over here? I realize that a whole majority of users either uses one monitor or is perfectly content with terrible color reproduction of the default calibration, but pretty please?

    :)

    Windows calibration resets

    I got a problem with my with windows display color calibration. If i play a game, the calibration resets, so i have to make a new one again. Any suggestions?

    Solved by doing a calibration with nvidias control panel instead.

    Display Color Calibration

    We appreciate the detailed information. You can try uninstalling the driver in Device Manager and reboot the device. After the restart the system will automatically install the driver, then you can try to

    calibrate the display
    again.

    If you don't want to uninstall the driver, we suggest that you try the below steps:

    • Go to Color Management using Search or Cortana.
    • Click on Advanced tab.
    • Select Change system defaults.
    • On the new window, click on the “Advanced” tab on the upper side of the window.
    • Now you will need to check the box next to “Use Windows default calibration”.
    • Left click or tap on the “Close” button.
    • Left click on the “Devices” tab you have on the upper side of the window.
    • Select the “Set as default profile”.
    • Reboot the device and see if your calibrate screen feature is okay now.

    Let us know how it goes.
