Illustrator 2021 keep switching to "emulate adobe illustrator 6.0" color profile

Hi everyone, 

everytime i go on other software like Ps, Illustrator automatically changes it's color profile to "emulate adobe illustrator 6.0" settings. 

 

It doesn't matter if i made a personal color profile settings, everytime i open other app, like Ps, it changes by itself. Really frustrating. Any way to solve this issue?

There is a bug caused by the recent Photoshop update. It sets your Color Settings to Emulate Illustrator 6, which turns color management off.

Use the CC app to revert Photoshop to the Previous version (22.2.0) and then change your Color Settings to what you want it to be.

Hi,

I just reverted back to the previous version of Ps but I dont know what color settings i was using prior to the bug changing my color settings.  What is the default color settings for illustrator as I believe that is what may have been set.

Thank you!

Probably one of the General purpose presets. If you live in Europe, the European.
