Question

Lightroom developer mode does not work at all.

I tried to work with lightroom developer mode but when I select an image it still stays on the grey screen instead of showing the image I want to work on. I tried disabling my gpu but this did not change anything at all so I re enabled them again. I am trying to figure out what the problem is but all I can figure out is that maybe it is because I started the trial first to see how it works.

This might be caused by a defective monitor profile.

Try setting the monitor profile to sRGB (use Adobe RGB if you have a wide gamut monitor).

Restart Ligthroom after changing the monitor profile for the change to take effect.

If this fixes the problem, you should ideally calibrate the monitor with a hardware calibrator. This will create a new monitor profile that accurately describes your monitor.
