Hello Adobe, We have a problem with colors after updating from Windows 7 to Windows 10. The colors are different for professional man (not for Windows users) than in Windows 7. Do you have any solution to fix it?

    Ok, we found an solution. View->sample setting->CMYK. Now everything seems to be right. Known "feature" (in Macs too).

    Do not count on Windows to be fully up to date when it comes to device drivers

    Go to the vendor site to be sure you have an updated driver for your graphic adapter

    •nVidia Driver Downloads http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us

    •ATI Driver Autodetect http://support.amd.com/en-us/download/auto-detect-tool

    There are also intermittent reports that the newest driver is not always the best driver due to driver bugs or compatibility issues, so you MAY need to try an earlier driver version

    None of us fellow users could even guess without knowing a lot more.

    Operating system (which Win10 version?) GPU, the monitor, color space and calibration, all these things can be of use perhaps.

    I have Dell Precision T3500 with Xeon W3550 and nVIdia Quadro 5000. Newest GPU driver on board. Colors in Windows are right, in Adobe not. Any solution?

    What is the color space of your monitor? How is it calibrated? PrPro is set to standard Bt(Rec.)709, which is sRGB ... if your monitor somehow got set otherwise in the change of OS, that could be an issue. PrPro often over-rides in working through the system.

    And "the colors are different for professional man (not for windows users) than in Windows 7" ... no idea what that is. When I went from 7 to 10, just made sure the calibration system was setting the monitor to the correct space, calibrated, and went merrily on my way working.
