Color problem PNG Export RGB

Can't seem to find the right settings for exporting those and keep the colors right and not desaturated as they appear. I joined a screenshot version (07) and an PNG exported file (06). It's driving me crazy..

If anyone has some clues on what could be wrong.. i tried every possible settings (both for export & document settings) but none seem to work, so i might be missing something ? 

 

Would greatly appreciate any help on this 🙂

I swear to god, i know i'll sound crazy saying that, but i swear to god, this aplication. 
Been having the same problem since few days ago, not sure if after an update or something. 

Today i had enough anc came across this post. 
Nothing solved. Still exporting png, still getting images cmyk-like, dessaturated, etc. 
Changed the color mode from RGB to CMYK in my ai file. 
Done. Perfect, bright, colorful rgb file in my desktop. I swear. 
And i may never know the answer.

Well, no. This is not a sustainable solution. Never ever.

 

But without knowing how your color management is set up and how your monitor is calibrated, nobody will be able to help you.

I had this exact same problem and I "solved" it by using Export for Screens instead of just Export As.
I had been weary of using Export for Screens because the resolution was always bad, but then I realised I could type in 300ppi in the scale box. This keeps the colors bright.

What is your Illustrator document color profile?

See the bottom of your doc window:

Are you set up as RGB to start with before exporting?
