Question

Exported photos become warmer and more yellow

Hi, I'm currently handling a client's job. I edited the photos in Lightroom and finally done. Everything is the way I wanted it to look like. But as soon as I exported it, the final exported image turned out to be more warm and yellow than I would've liked. This never happened before, only recently, I'm on the latest version of Lightroom as well.

I'm editing this on my laptop with calibrated screen.

Has anyone else experience this before? I can't deliver the final image to my clients till this gets fixed. I've uploaded the final edit to cloud, exported from Local Storage as well as Cloud and the result is the same.

Since your screenshot is clearly not Lightroon Classic, I've moved your post to the Lightroom Ecosystem forum.

No problem. You're not the first to be confused by Adobe's choice of names for the application and associated forum, and I doubt you'll be the last.

In what application are you viewing the exported image?

Can you post the exported image here? (not a screenshot, but the actual image)

You seem to be using the cloud based Lightroom, but have posted in the Lightroom Classic forum.

A moderator will move your post to the Lightroom Ecosystem forum.

I use the default Windows 11 Photos App to open the image.

The image doesn't have an embedded profile, possibly caused by forum glitch.

(I don't use Lightroom, but I would have thought that it's not possible to export without embedding a profile)

When I open the image in Photoshop and assign sRGB, it does have a yellow cast.

When two color managed applications don't match, it's usually caused by a bug in the GPU driver or a defective (or incompatible) monitor profile.

If you disable the GPU in Lightroom, does the image display the same, or does it become warmer?

Do you use a hardware calibrator to calibrate your screen? Which one?
