Color is off in Library and Full Screen

I use Lightroom daily.

I just updated to the new 13.0.1   The color /saturation is way off in Library mode and also when viewing in Full Screen. In develop mode the color/saturation  is correct .  This is occuring with images that have been edited and images that have not been edited. 

I'm running windows 11 home

Is there a way to go back to the previous version? Lightroom was working perfectly before I updated this morning

Please can someone advise? I need to fix this to send out an order for a client--today!

Thank you to anyone who can help

Correct answer RLMaine

The only thing I did upon opening LR after the update was that I checked out the new Color Mixer panel. I didn't like what I was getting and went back to my usual editing process. 

The issue seems to only be with LR (images viewed elsewhere don't have the issue)

The issue began with the update (this morning 10/15/2023)

All images in my library are affected (edited and unedited)

Images appear correct when in Develop Mode, (images that have not been edited and those that have been edited)

Images are not correct when I look at them full frame, in Library or Print Mode

Images seem to export with correct color, (as they were viewed in Develop)

The issue does not occur on my laptop monitor

The issue DOES occur with my external monitor, which has been working flawlessly with LR for over a year

??

Thank you 

 

 


I figured it out!

Went into the settings for my two  monitors. The Asus laptop does not have the HDR option setting. The external monitor does  have the HDR option setting. I decided to try turning OFF the HDR setting for the external so it matched the laptop.  I got out of LR and I opened it and the issue was solved. 

When I first got the external monitor over a year ago I remember I had to adjust the resolution settings for it to 'match' the laptop. So I did the same thing for the HDR

All I can guess is that the LR update changed the settings in my external monitor?

Thankyou GoldingD.

Did you perhaps click on the new HDR button?

Not knowinglly. I have trying to figure it out  all morning.  The issue seems to only occur on my external monitor--which has been working flawlessly with LR up until I did the update this morning.  Images export correctly. But the only place the images are correct is in develop. Print, Library and looking at the image full frame, I get the horrible result above. 

Viewing images on my facebook, instagram pages don't have the same problem. My Asus laptop : not a problem. Just the external monitor and only in the instances above and as I said the issue only started with the update. 

Any ideas of what to look at next?

Thank you for responding
