When I save a picture for e.g. web use it always appears a little too reddish! (red stick) How do I adjust it?
 
In Photoshop elements, the image is perfect. but when it is stored and needs to be used it has become 
too red! - on the same screen! 
If I print directly from Photoshop elements it appears perfectly in the print, but saved in the web 
version is it too red?? 
Where can I change it permanently? So you don't have to make every single picture??

Correct answer Bo50B8

Yes it could be a bad monitor  profile or multiple profiles set for the same display.


My problem with color difference is solved!! I'm a bit embarrassed by the simple solution!! 
I had not checked 'Enable color management' ... in my Photo viewer. Now it all works 
and I have become wiser 🙂 Again, Thanks for the help!!

What operating system are you using?

 

Before going to Save for Web, i would convert the image to the sRGB Color Mode

(Image>Convert Color Profile), then in Save for Web check Embed Color Profile.

Many thanks for the answer and for the help! The sRGB profile gave no change, but the image gets the 'correct' 
color balance when I open the image again in Photoshop elements ... 
So maybe it's Windows 10's color profile I should look at ...? 
I'm using W10 which is newly updated. - And thanks again!!
