Photoshop Yellow Tint with HDR Enabled

Report · May 12, 2023

I recently got a new computer and monitor. I'm running Windows 11 and have enabled HDR for the display. Everything had been looking fine until I opened Photoshop. The Photoshop UI and the images have a yellow tint to them. If I disable HDR in the Windows 11 settings, then the yellow tint goes away. Is there any way for me to get Photoshop to not have a yellow tint and still have HDR enabled?

This also happens with Lightroom Classic.

Thanks,

Mike

Make sure W11 is up to date, there were yellow tint issues due to an inability to use display ICC profiles in early versions

Heres some background on windows 11 issues.

There are several Win32 API functions to get monitor profiles, but among them, the GetICMProfile and EnumICMProfiles functions have a problem that does not work properly on Windows 11.

Photoshop seems to be using GetICMProfile in the Adobe Color Engine DLL. I guess that's why Photoshop can't get the correct profile of the monitor.

Once you’ve done that, if the issue persists then read on:-

Here are some suggestions from Adobe for GPU issues.

First check the system requirements: https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/system-requirements.html
