Windows 11 has a problem with getting the ICC profile by GetICMProfile() function, and applications using it are affected.
"Photo" app is a UWP app, so it should not be using GetICMProfile().
Also, desktop apps that use WcsGetDefaultColorProfile() or ColorProfileGetDisplayDefault() to get the ICC profile are not affected.

  It seems to have been reported on the Feedback Hub, but I don't know if Microsoft has the details.
  Note that EnumICMProfiles() also does not work correctly on Windows 11, but only a few apps use it for color management of graphics.
