Whilst taking the steps shown in the video have partially overcome an issue with a broken monitor profile on your system, you are now using a generic colour space profile as a monitor profile. Unfortunately that still does not accurately describe the behaviour of your monitor. So although it was a good first step in diagnosing the issue, if you want accurate colour, you should now take a second step and use a hardware calibration & profiling device such as the i1Display to make a good monitor profile that does describe your monitor.
