By coincidense I experienced that as well. For me it happen with edfiles I savewhile being connected to a projector.

And document color profile. Do you have multiple monitors?

Hi yes I have 2 monitors and have the standard settings. none of my other files are having this issue. I can open multiple tabs in illustrator and this is the only one with the issue. I tried going back to an old version of illustrator etc and nothing works

And moving the file to the other monitor, makes that a difference?

Can you go to your Edit > Color Settings and turn on the checkboxes for profile warnings?

Then copy the bright colored file objects, create a new file and see if you get a warning when pasting?

If this is just one file, you may have assigned a color profile unintentionally or applied an effect of saturation to the entire layer.

Try copying all and pasting into a new document. That might be easier tahtn typing out a long set of instructions to follow. If you still need help please provide a screenshot.

Hey, I thought that was the issue as well but all the assets are highly saturated no matter where i put them. I tried moving them to new files, PS,ID etc

Please tell us your version, system and color management settings. And the details about the file, especially document color mode.

Did this happen overnight?

It happened while i was working on another file, I went back to it and it was all crazy. Color settings are cmyk and proof settings are shown in the photo below. I didn't change anything between working on this file and the next. I have tried going to RGB as well and it gets worse.
