Many applications don't inherit display's colour profile (Windows 11 22000.100)
- michaelravierSep 07, 2021Copper ContributorHas anyone tested 22449 on the dev channel ?
Changelog mentions this :
"Addressed an issue that was making certain applications sometimes get the wrong color profile in multi-monitor scenarios."- michaelravierSep 25, 2021Copper Contributor
So does thos mean we have to either switch to Dev channel or wait over 6 month to get the fix regaring color management on multiple display settings ?

It's good to see atleast the multi-display issue has been solved, but the issue I originally reported still exists in the latest Beta channel build, from what I can tell. Although, the little fix I posted earlier works as well.
From one of the recent official blog posts related to W11, it seems there's been under-the-hood changes to display colour profiles for implementing some HDR and colour depth related stuff. I'm pretty sure this is why the old profiles aren't working as intended, maybe this will be fixed with the W11 launch version. It's also possible that graphics vendors like AMD and nVidia may fix the issue when they release compatible drivers for W11.
Either way, once I got rid of the existing colour profiles, I didn't run into any issues. I used my display's native control panel to change some settings I wanted to change.
michaelravier Nah, I think the fix may be in the release candidate build that's coming up soon.
