      Hi, I have a laptop with an external hdmi monitor. I have noticed that my custom ICC color profile for the laptop monitor (created using the standard color calibration tool in Windows 10) gets disabled when I open f.lux. Even if I set the laptop monitor as disabled on f.lux menu, it does wipe the ICC anyway.
      On this forum I see another similar issue posted in 2016 for a mac user with no answers.

      Is there anything that can be done? Thank you.

      My driver info:
      Intel Corporation 27.20.100.8935: Intel(R) HD Graphics 530 (20201028)

        This is addressed in our FAQ here:

        The short version is: this is not a "real" profile and there are better tools to use to make one.

          Interesting stuff, I didn't know that. I can't find my laptop's lcd profile on the database, I will check QuickGamma for sure.
          Thank you.
