PNGs linked in show up in purple/white with yellow background

[Erin23930521ktoq]

I linked in some photos and they have all the same specs as the other photos in the document but for some reason when I reopen the file, they show up like the coloring has been messed with.  They are also both PNGs but only the one keeps showing up with a yellow background. They also keep getting put in groups they were not in, in clipping masks they were not in. I have to relink them each time I save the file. I cannot figure out what is going on.

I have similar issues. When placing PNG my whole swatches shifts toward CMYK looing swatches. I am using version 27.5 and every time I open the file a need to change all my elments to te correct RGB swatch.

These are my color settings.

Hi @alexgsrubio_,

I'm sorry to hear about the swatch issue. To better assist you, could you please update Illustrator to the latest version (v28.1) and check if the problem persists? Additionally, it would be helpful if you could share the color profile ICC, the PNG causing the issue, and a screen recording demonstrating the problem. This information will aid in investigating and providing a more accurate solution.

Thank you,
