f.lux doesn't work properly with dual monitors when both are calibrated and using different ICC profiles
-
Windows 10 Pro 21H1
On my system, I have two Asus PB278Qs connected via DisplayPort to an Nvidia GTX 1070.
I have them both color calibrated (using a colorimeter) separately, and both have different ICC profiles.
Now that they both have their own profiles instead of sharing the same generic PB278Q profile, f.lux only appears to apply to a single screen (the primary).

Can you post f.lux options > driver info so we can see the details?
This sounds similar to a configuration we have here (which is working as it tends to always work here!)

Color-wise, they both calibrated substantially differently, and are using two different ICC profiles.

Okay we do know that NVIDIA has some settings in its own control panel that override color settings - can you check for "reference color" mode or something like that in the NVIDIA Control Panel? It should be turned off for f.lux to work.
