Is it possible to remove the colors when editing in RAW? There are so many colors that it is impossible to see the image...

One way to remove the warnings is to disable them as suggest by Sameer. The second way is to adjust the Shadows and Highlights so the colors are not clipped.

Use the "o" and "u" keys to toggle the clipping warning, or right-click in the histogram:

Hey, @oleschwander. Welcome to the Photoshop Community. I'll help you figure this out.

Assuming you're working in Camera RAW; you might've accidentally enabled the Highlight Clipping Warning (O). You can click on the triangle buttons on the Histogram in the top right, or press O for Highlights (Red) & U for Shadows (Blue) clipping warnings.

Let me know if this helps.

Agreed @jane-e - It's usually best to err on the side of caution, unless one is going for contrast over detail.
