Repost: color shift

[Guest]

Sorry for not following up on replies to my initial request, my wife broke a leg so I have been occupied with domestic duties.

This shows the same unedited sRGB image in Irfanview, Faststone Image Viewer and PS CC 2018. All are up to date versions, CM is on for Irfanview and Faststone Viewer. PS workspace is sRGB, colour settings are default.

A DisplayCal profile has been set as the default for all users. Changing Proof Setup to that profile rather than the default CMYK has no effect though if I select “Preserve RGB Numbers” the PS display then matches the others.

I have reinstalled PC and run SFC and DISM checks on Win 10. I am not sure when this change occurred. I had been using CS 3 with Breezebrowser for a number of years with no problems and moved up to PS CC some time ago with no problems. This change between PS and viewers, including Breexe Browser only cropped up recently, probably this year which has been very quiet for editing.

I would appreciate any further suggestions. Thanks

Most of them should also have an sRGB emulation easily accessible, for those rare occasions when you don't have color managed software available for what you want to do.

Technically that requires switching the profile as well - but since those apps aren't color managed it doesn't matter. They don't know a profile from a sandwich. Just remember to set the monitor back to native for Photoshop.

Reset the monitor to default and profiled with Wide Gamut LCD(CCFL) selected. The profile loaded as default.

Initial measurements were.

Hope this helps and is what you wanted,
