If you are using Windows 11 version 21H2 and noticed an inaccurate display of colors in your HDR monitors, it's not just you who is having this issue. According to the reports, this issue happens with some image editing programs trying to render colors on certain HDR displays.

 

On the Windows 11 support site, Microsoft confirms this issue and said that a future update of Windows 11, most likely to release in late January 2022, will resolve it.

 

Microsoft confirms a new HDR display issue on Windows 11 that fails rendering colors correctly

 

A new issue has been identified on Windows 11 version 21H2 that incorrectly renders color on certain HDR monitors. The issue occurs frequently with white/light colors when users try to edit pictures on some image editing applications. In such a case, your picture will display in bright yellow or other colors.

 

This issue occurs when certain color-rendering Win32 APIs return unexpected information or errors under specific conditions. Not all color profile management programs are affected, and color profile options available in the Windows 11 Settings page, including Microsoft Color Control Panel, are expected to function correctly, said Microsoft.

 

 

The company also said that the issue is being investigated and a fix is expected to arrive in late January with the next Windows 11 update.
