I'm having an issue with Illustrator CC 2017.
When i use export to create a PNG file, it comes out with dull colors. However, when i use Save for web the PNG comes out in nice colors.
For example:
The result i want:
(created with Save for Web)
(Exported to PNG)
This one looks dull compared to the other.
About my setup:
Thanks for your time.
Edit -> Assign Profile. My guess is that you have AdobeRGB assigned. For work that will be mainly viewed on-screen, you should assign sRGB.
Save for Web will automatically convert to sRGB, whereas Export preserves the colour numbers, which will appear differently when viewed on most monitors, which are closer to sRGB.
I have a different answer. Don't go to > Save As
Instead use > Eport > Quick Export as PNG

"Rich Black" is only relevant for CMYK. The rest simply sounds like the usual lack of color management vs. a poorly adjusted monitor. You need to work on that rather than anything else.
