Windows 10: Windows ICC profile naming limitations

what is maximum length of profile name do windows color management supports?

:)

 

ICC Profiles Don't Apply

No matter how many times I try to apply ICC or ICM profiles, they do nothing at all. Is there an extra step that I need to do or something? I already checked the box for "Use Windows Calibration"

 

Can't seem to use ICC profile

Try the following guide (specifically the last part):

 

Changing icc profiles in Colour management with no effect

You didn't mention what tools you are using for calibration, or if you have created an ICC profile using a calibration tool.

My experience with printing photos or working with images is limited, and my monitor colour calibrations are more for

game enhancement rather than accuracy, but...

Very few monitors come with completely accurate calibration out of the box, and the accuracy can vary between units.

To get a truly accurate profile for professional use you probably need to use a colour calibration 'spyder' to create your own ICC

rather than eye-balling colour charts (my option).

Have you calibrated the colour using the BENQ OSD ?

Have you downloaded an ICC profile for your model BENQ, or are you trying to use the default one's provided by Windows

(Or -Does BENQ provide an ICC on a disk, or a download from their site ) ?

I've found a lot of ICC's make barely perceptible changes, which I suppose is a good thing when it comes to printing ?

- TFT Central has ICC profiles, reviews, and a Forum where you are more likely to get suggestions regarding your particular monitor.

Reviews generally calibrate using a tool, and give the OSD settings they find most accurate, which you can use to start from.

(Oops. No profile for your model. You can still access their forums/reviews from this page though)

A couple of guides/review you may find something useful in...

- Two calibration charts for 'eye balling' the colour without using a spyder.

(It says 'on line' but has a option for you to download the charts to use off line as well.)

- Color Profile Keeper loads your ICC when you boot into Windows, and is a handy tool for saving your ICC profile

should Windows change the calibration for one reason or another. Which does happen now and then.

( I also keep a shortcut to the settings.ini file on the Start menu as there is a minor issue of a tendency for the program to

default back to displaying the UI when you boot into Windows rather than minimise it to the Notification Area.

It's a simple matter of changing minimised=0 back to 1, and doesn't happen often. )
