Display profile issues on Windows

At least once a week on this forum we read about this, or very similar issues of appearance differing between applications.

Unfortunately, with Microsoft hardware: Windows updates, Graphics Card updates and Display manufacturers have a frustratingly growing reputation for installing useless (corrupted) monitor display profiles.

I CAN happen with Macs but with far less likelyhood, it seems.

 

The issue can affect different applications in different ways, some not at all, some very badly.

 

The poor monitor display profile issue is hidden by some applications, specifically those that do not use colour management, such as Microsoft Windows "Photos".

 

Photoshop is correct, it’s the industry standard for viewing images, in my experience it's revealing an issue with the Monitor Display profile rather that causing it. Whatever you do, don't ignore it. As the issue isn’t caused by Photoshop, don’t change your Photoshop ‘color settings’ to try fix it. 

 

If you want to rule out pretty much the only issue we ever see with Photoshop, you can reset preferences, I never read of a preferences issue causing this problem though:

To reset the preferences in Photoshop: 

https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/using/preferences.html

 

Note: Make sure that you back up all your custom presets, brushes & actions before restoring Photoshop's preferences. Migrate presets, actions, and settings

 

 

To find out if this is the issue, I recommend you to try setting the monitor profile for your own monitor display under “Device” in your Windows ‘color management’ control panel to sRGB. You can ADD sRGB if its not already listed. 

And be sure to check “Use my settings for this device”.

 

(OR, if you have a wide gamut monitor display (check the spec online) it’s better to try Adobe RGB instead).

Quit and relaunch Photoshop after the control panel change, to ensure the new settings are applied.

 

 

 

If this change fixes the issue, it is recommended that you should now calibrate and profile the monitor properly using a calibration sensor like i1display pro, which will create and install it's own custom monitor profile. The software should install it’s profile correctly so there should be no need to manual set the control panel once you are doing this right. 

 

Depending on the characteristics of your monitor display and your requirements, using sRGB or Adobe RGB here may be good enough - but custom calibration is a superior approach.

 

I hope this helps

if so, please "like" my reply and if you're OK now, please mark it as "correct", so that others who have similar issues can see the solution

thanks

You have changed the profile for your printer, but what you need to do is to change the monitor profile.

You also have to check Usar mi configuración para este dispositivo

If Photoshop is running, you have to restart it to make it aware of the new profile.

comes out three options and I have option , do not modify (do not perform color management), and there it goes well.
I just don't know how to put the screenshots here.

Please post a screenshot of your color settings. (Edit > Color settings, or press Ctrl + Shift + K.

To insert a screenshot in a post, click the image icon in the toolbar.

 

If you are getting a message when opening a file that says that the file has no embedded profile, you have to assign a profile, usually sRGB.

But for the image to display correctly, you have to fix your monitor profile.

An easy way to access the Color management dialog is to press the Windows key + R, then type colorcpl in the box and press Enter. Setting the monitor profile to sRGB will probably solve the problem with the yellow cast.

For accurate colors, you should calibrate your monitor with a hardware calibrator, which will also create and install a custom monitor profile that accurately describes your monitor.

Hi

What version of Photoshop and operating system do you have, sounds like it could be a monitor profile issue

In other programs does the white color look normal or is it also shifted towards more yellow shades?
