Anyone know how to turn off 10 bit color in Photoshop? (10 bit per channel=30bit)

Preferences > Performance. Click on "Advanced Settings", and uncheck "30-Bit Display".

This made me curious. Most people struggle to get to work at all, but you did and decided you don't want it? What's the problem?

30bit color causes a kernel error in my Nvidia Quadro card which makes Photoshop crash after I open it. This problem started after version 19.1 came out in January. I've been running 19.0.1 with 30bit color, but wanted to upgrade.

Ah, I see. Thanks for satisfying my curiosity. Several people (myself included) have reported problems getting 30 bit color to work with the latest Quadro driver and/or the Windows 1803 update. Still don't know which one broke it.
