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!)

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.
