      Hey, I'm using a dell G7 7500 Laptop with an intel UHD graphic integrated gpu and Nvidia 1660ti dgpu. Windows 11.

      I was having issue with f.lux where it wouldn't reliably turn off when I wanted it to when playing games. So I uninstalled it. This is where the problem begins.

      When I start the computer, colors are normal. They stay normal usually, until I start a game. At which point, they still stay fine for a few seconds before the screen turns yellow.

      Here's what I've tried:

      • Re-install f.lux, set colors back to normal and then disable it before uninstalling it, problem still persists as soon as I open a game
      • Used DDU to uninstall both my nvidia and intel gpu drivers, and then manually install drivers without using the internet, things seemed fine until I installed the intel gpu driver at which point the screen went yellow immediately
      • Tried recalibrating display in the Color Management window (colorcpl) which only shows my intel gpu. Doing this does actually solve the issue, but only temporarily and unreliably.

      I'm truly astonished by what's going on here, this has become a massive problem for me for the past few days.

        @rice_goblin since it's happening during a game, it sounds like the NVIDIA display settings may be the thing to check. If you have an "NVIDIA control panel" can you see any color settings there, and try to reset to defaults?

        f.lux does not leave any state that's permanent in the system, so usually a problem like this lives in the driver, somehow or another.
