Images opened in Photoshop Beta all appear overexposed

For the last couple of weeks all images opened in Photoshop Beta appear overexposed. I usually open Raw files after doing initial edits in Lightroom but the same happens if I open files directly from the computer or cloud storage. File type makes no difference, the same occurs with TIFF, PSD, JPEG etc  Images open correctly when I use Photoshop 2026. These screenshots of the same imgage show the difference:-

 

As Photoshop 2026 (and all other photo viewing software) shows the image as expected, the problem is clearly with Photoshop Beta.

Hopefully this can be sorted!

Photoshop Beta has a separate forum. Please repost to PS Beta:
https://community.adobe.com/photoshop-beta-697

This is the Aero forum and we can’t help you here.

I just did a search and see that this issue has been reported on the Beta forum. Reply to this Primary Thread:

Also, try turning off your graphics processor as a workaround. It’s worked for others.

Many thanks Jane, being unfamiliar with using the forums, I’d not managed to find the Beta forum so will take a look there.
