#UPDATE COLORMUNKI DISPLAY PROFILE WINDOWS 10#

Lo and behold, photo colours were rendered exactly as I saw them in Lightroom. Next I loaded Firefox, went to 'about :config' and set 'gfx.color_management.display_profile' to the path and file of my new Displa圜AL profile, and restarted. I then changed that flag to 'sRGB', restarted Chrome, and everything looked pretty much OK again - though on close inspection, the accuracy of colours compared to Lightroom still wasn't quite right.

faded / posterised / just plain weird.I checked 'chrome://flags' and confirmed that 'Force color profile' was set to 'Default', thereby (allegedly) using the active colour profile for the current display (unfortunately, it's not possible to force the colour profile to a specific path and file). But when I loaded Chrome, the colours for websites and photos were way off base. The profiling worked flawlessly, and Windows Desktop and Lightroom both showed the temperature and colours I'd broadly expected. Yesterday, I decided to move away from X-rite's software and replace it with the quite-highly-regarded open source Displa圜AL tool, which I already use in my Linux Mint installation with good success. When posting photos on forums, I've noticed some colour differences between what I see in Lightroom and Chrome. I also have Firefox (version 59), but have rarely used it.

My browser of choice for the last five years or so has been Chrome, and I've updated regularly (currently at version 65).

For some time now, I've been using an X-rite ColorMunki Display colorimeter and X-rite's official software to profile the displays on my Windows 10 system, and I've been fairly happy with it.
