With the rollout of "Advanced Color Management" in Windows 11 which changes how existing ICC profiles are handled, is LrC or any other creative cloud app ACM aware or not?

Basically IF the apps are ACM aware then you need to nothing and they still work and display accurarely. If they are NOT aware, they're clamped to sRGB despite the display Gamut unless you use the compatibility troubleshooter on a per-app basis.
So question, are any Adobe Apps ACM aware at this point OR if ACM is enabled, do we need to use the legacy ICC troubleshooter option to keep access to full display gamut?

Do you have a monitor capable of that? I do not, so no lessons learned at this end. However I suspect what you want to look at is:

Hopefully, a few other community members that happen to be color management experts will reply with better info for you.

Yes.
And no, this is nothing to do with HDR or that link. Its about OS colour management via ICC files and default behaviour changing depending on the new changes in windows. It affects everyone using a high gamut and/or ICC profile calibrated display.

Camera Raw, Lightroom Classic, and Lightroom Desktop should have full-color management support in Windows 11. Advanced Color Management should work as expected.
