  1. Windows keeps switching to different colour profile


    Hi.


    For some time now my display colours have been looking a little bit off and I finally decided to calibrate them. I completed the calibration and found out that my gamma was set way too high. After fixing that my display looked nice and everything was fine. I then closed all the "Colour management" windows and about 5s later my display was switched back to looking bad again. I then tried to open Colour management again and select my wanted profile as my default one, which worked fine until I either tabbed out of the Colour management window or closed it completely.


    This issue also exists when I boot up my PC. I have several times noticed how my display looks really nice just after booting my computer, but then a few seconds later it switches to a very bad looking calibration.


    I should mention that I have f.lux installed on my computer, but all of these issues persist even when I disable f.lux or shut it down completely.

    :)

  2. unwanted resetting of colour profiles to standard.

    I am working with a few different colour profiles for various ambient light conditions. I made them with calibrating software and the are listed in the display settings. When I change to another profile, all is fine. A next change (whether that is a changing
    to another or changing bach to the same), Windows resets to uncalibrated.

    Also a change in resolution settings causes the reset to uncalibrated. I'd say that is a bug, or am I missing something?

  4. Windows keeps switching to different colour profile

    Assigning colour profiles does not work well

    Hi, I have a few calibrations for various light conditions and the are neatly listed in the display window. However, when I want to change a profile I need to reboot, which is quite annoying. I have the issue on two win10 machines, of which one has a brand
    new install. I used two different kinds of calibration software, nothing changed.

    Going to the advanced settings does not make any difference.

    Btw. the brightness setting has disappeared after installing the colour profiles...
