f.lux messing with calibration profiles
-
f.lux keeps messing with color profiles in windows. I have to close f.lux if I want anything near actual colors and gamma. Is there any way to use the current profile as a baseline? Even the default profile for the screen does not work, let alone the calibrated profile I made with windows. It's a real pain to have to close f.lux whenever I need to do anything important.

Hi John - we have some notes about this in our FAQ:
https://justgetflux.com/faq.html?q=calibrate+displayThe main issue is that these utilities do not save your changes in a way we can read (like a "real" hardware calibrator would).
(Linked in the FAQ...) There is an app called "QuickGamma" that will make a real profile from your manual settings, and this helps most people do what you want to do.

Is there any way to convert the "bad" configs to proper configs you can read? or add in the functionality to read these files within f.lux itself?

I have not tried it but people say good things about QuickGamma:
