P: Windows HDR Calibration breaks Phoshop Ui and color selection

[sacb0y]

Photoshop 24.0.0

Windows 11 Pro 22H2 build 22621.675

After running Windows HDR Calibration which is reccomended in the display settings

It will save a profile and use it, for some peers it helped their displays greatly.

Photoshop is now displaying UI colors incorrectly. 

The color white appears green in most cases, amoung other colors. 

The actual image displays correctly after the profile is set. But the rest is broken. these are my settings.

If turning off HDR, and rebooting photoshop with the same settings fixes it. But for my own ease of use I keep HDR "on" on my PC for various reasons. Considering this is native functionality with windows at this point, it really needs to be fixed.

Oops i forgot to link to the display calibration tool.

Windows HDR Calibration

[sacb0y]

Oh, I only now noticed it breaks when moving photoshop to my non-HDR monitor from my HDR monitor. 

[sacb0y]

It is worth noting I cannot reproduce this issue in other software I use so far, Unity, Blender, are all I've tested for now as far as work programs go but I will check others like the substance programs later.

Same here.  In previous versions of Photoshop I did notice some UI distortion, but that was workable.  Now everything is green tinted, even grayscale color pallettes! Turning off HDR for now (which immediately fixes it).  Also used Windows HDR calibration tool which created a Color Profile it generated for my monitor after my calibration.

I've asked engineering to take a look.

[sacb0y]

Awesome! Maybe proper display HDR support will come soon XD

[J453]

Engineering says "Microsoft needs to bump a version number in their OS to treat PS as icc color managed.  For now ask them get the properties of Photoshop, and set the checkbox below to true" They're going to discuss and loop in Microsoft this week.

Dude, this is awesome and fixed my issue.

If possible could this be made easier to find, perhaps in a known issues list for Lightroom Classic (didn't try the other) and PS?

I'm having the same issue. Where do you pull up MyColorManagedApp.exe? Thanks!

[jhdemicco]

I found it, and this worked for me too. To anyone that can't find the MyColorManagedApp.exe, just right-click on the application (Photoshop, Illustrator, etc.) and click on the Open file location option from the context menu. From there, right-click on the shortcut for that program and select properties. Click on the Compatibility tab and select the "use legacy display ICC color management" checkbox.

Just updated to Photoshop 24. After opening everything on my project has a green tint. Even within color picker, white is green. Everything else in the window is normal but green has taken control. 

[ericg89525649]

This is what a blank background looks like... all green. 

[ericg89525649]

What the exact same image looks like when I export it.

Check your ICC color profile.
And Try two things.
1. Go to Preference - Technology Previews - Check "Deactive native canvas"

2. Go to Preference - Technology Previews - Check "Older GPU Mode Pre 2016"
And Restart PS.

[ericg89525649]

Went through my personal color profiles for my computer and did not see anything that should be causing this problem. Also went through the color profiles in photoshop and there was nothing that could correct the issue. It is by default using the Adobe RGB (1998) profile. Only one that changes it is my monitor calibrated HDR profile and is worse. I went through the following two suggestions already from ready other post. Still no luck. Also performed an uninstall/install of Photoshop.

So I just tried something else. I uninstalled/installed Photoshop 24 twice this morning trying to resolve the issue. No luck. Just decided to uninstall Photopshop 24 and installed Photoshop 23.5.2 and the issue is resolved. Everything looks normal now and I can get back to a work project. Thank you for your support!

Now plausible workround is to set the checkbox 'use legacy ICC profile' to true in the properties of photoshop.exe

[Gabriel25794379b1cs]

Ao ativar nas opções do Windows o HDR (tenho monitor compatível) as cores ficam todas trocadas, mais especificamente o branco se torna verde... Como corrigir isso?

[Gabriel25794379b1cs]

Its works for me!!!!! Thank you!!!!!

[Gordon Whittaker]

Same  problem here!!!  Virtually every photo in my library is like this when I open it in Photoshop!

My Photoshop version is: 24.1.0

[Gordon Whittaker]

Hi.... I have the same 'green' issue.  I even did the following:

Checked my ICC color profile.
And checked off the following:
1. Go to Preference - Technology Previews - Check "Deactive native canvas"

2. Go to Preference - Technology Previews - Check "Older GPU Mode Pre 2016"
Restarted PS.  NO CHANGE!!

After reading over posts from people having similar issues and also digging into my own memory, I'm pretty sure this issue began right after a recent update!!

[Brad28681874myl0]

just wanted to verify, are you saying to uncheck the "Use legacy display ICC color management". When I unchecked "Use legacy display ICC color management" my issue went away.

[SPENNY]

I also had this same issue,  and the  Click on the Compatibility tab and select the "use legacy display ICC color management" checkbox  DID work for me.  However... I downlaoded PS Beta and it was having the same color issues, and now i have discovered that when i right click on the app's  exe  and go to properties, i do not have a "compatibility" tab at all.   Does anyone know why that may be,  and/or  another way to access that option  for legacy display ICC color management????   Thanks! 

I also made a seperate post before finding this one, but can see it here and breaks it down good, but essentially is same issue as in this thread.

Thanks!

Legacy display box was checked and after unchecking it, I finally have correct colors in photoshop again after years of not being able to remove the yellow tint while utilizing HDR.
