Hi again everyone,
I noticed that this issue also affects the colours in video games and movies as well making them look washed out.
However, the good news is that there is a way to fix the issue (atleast for now). It turns out the issue is actually caused by graphics drivers for Windows 11 and not by Windows 11 itself.
So here's the way to do it:
* Delete your display's colour profiles in Windows Color Profile Management.
* Uninstall graphics drivers completely using a tool like Display Driver Uninstaller.
* Restart your computer.
* Reinstall graphics drivers.
* Restart your computer.
* Colours should display correctly.

Thanks man! I'll give it a try and report.
