Photoshop 2025 - Blue tint in Windows 11 with HDR display

Under Windows 11, I recently upgraded to Photoshop 2025 (version 26.2.0) from Photoshop 2024 (version 25.12.1 ).  I noticed that raw files are displayed differently in Photoshop than in Adobe Camera Raw.  Photoshop 2025 ( but not Photoshop 2024) displays the image with an overall blue tint even though it looked correct in Adobe Camera Raw.

 

By chance I found an earlier thread on this community that suggested changing the Properties of the Windows executable to enable the compatibility setting "Use legacy display ICC color management".  This fixed the problem.  I noticed that Photoshop 2024 already had this setting switched on but I don't remember doing it myself.

    You're a saint.
    for those looking for how to do this:
    Navigate to your Photoshop application properties
    Access the compatibility tab
    Select the option "Use legacy display ICC color management" within the settings section
    Hit Apply.

    PS. -- It may have been turned on by default in 2024?

      Yes, maybe it was switched on by default for Photoshop 2024.  But if so, I don't understand why Adobe would switch it off for Photoshop 2025.
