I have some strange color rendering / color management issue with InDesign. All colors within the document and UI are dull and desaturated and don't respond to any color settings. The colors within the color picker and in all exported files are perfectly fine. The screen is calibrated and properly color managed. The issue is only appearing in InDesign, not in any other program. What I have tried so far:

Any thoughts? What did I miss?

I'm sorry to hear about the color management issue you're experiencing in InDesign. It sounds frustrating, especially since you've already taken several troubleshooting steps. Here are a few additional solutions that might help:
Ensure that your NVIDIA graphics drivers are up to date. You can do this through the NVIDIA GeForce Experience application or by visiting the NVIDIA website.
Let us know how it goes. Thanks for your detailed information, and I hope this helps!

Thanks for the quick response and suggestions. I went through all your steps (and some more), but without success.
To investigate further, I wanted to compare the behavior in the other programs, and it seems, that all of them are a bit desaturated. So either all of them share the same issue, or it is the other way around and the color picker is just oversaturated. Interestingly, the color picker in Photoshop does actually match the content, while in InDesign and Illustrator it doesn't:
Screenshot from InDesign, Illustrator and Photoshop (f.l.t.r.) displaying the same color with the color picker open.
Why are they displayed differently? Is it possible that the color picker in InDesign and Illustrator isn't colormanaged and in Photoshop it is?

I just poster an other (maybe related?) issue about totally wrong colors within the color picker. Maybe you have some good inputs there? Could those issues have the same cause?

Hi @ncokbl,
Thank you for your detailed response. To help us investigate this issue further, could you please share a screen recording of your workflow demonstrating the color discrepancies? Additionally, if you have a specific affected file, it would be helpful for us to test the issue on our end.
Also, could you let us know if this problem occurs with multiple files or just a specific one? This information will assist us in pinpointing the cause.
Looking forward to your reply!
Best,
