    Windows 10 washed out color after waking from sleep mode


    Hi

    I'm having trouble with my monitor "occasionally" when it wakes up from sleeping. The color looks washed out, and too bright.

    I noticed that this only happens when I enable HDR option on one of my monitor, which is the same monitor having this problem.

    All drivers are up to date, also the windows system. I even tried to update to insider version, but this problem is unsolved.



    Current system spec:

    Windows 10, OS Build 20241.1005

    RTX 2060 Super, Game Ready Driver 460.20

    Monitor, LG 27GL850

    :)

    Windows 10 after waking from sleep mode screen is washed out and very bright

    After my computer Dell emachine wakes from sleep mode the screen is very bright and icons / colors are washed out as if the contrast and brightness have been cranked up. This happened as soon as I upgraded from Windows 7 to 10. And yes the monitor driver
    and software are up to date.

    Awful washed out colors in Windows 10. Happens intermittently

    I wonder why nobody has suggested the OP to make a screenshot of display showing these "washed out colors"? Everything I have read in this thread suggests that the issue is not in Windows, but instead in display / monitor.

    My suggestion: next time you'll see these washed out colors, make a screenshot and post it here. If the screenshot shows us that colors are OK, then the issue is your monitor failing.
