Hello. I just noticed this problem today, did a web search, found this page, and fixed the problem. Thanks.

By the way, my monitor is a Dell ST2310, which was using “Dell ST2310 Color Profile”, so it’s not just Samsung monitors that have a default screwy color profile. I still wonder why it seemed only Windows Photo Viewer is affected. I guess my other apps ignore the color profile.

Also, I could swear that I didn’t have the problem until today. Today was the first time that I used my scanner, maybe that altered the color settings somehow.

I was having the same issue with my Acer monitor (p241w), so it’s not just Samsung. The same fix worked for me. It’s been bugging me for quite a while.

Thanks!!!

I am also using a Samsung monitor (2033SW Plus) and I had this problem as well… But luckily your fix worked for me, thanks!

Thank you…this fixed the problem and was very easy to follow. BTW, I have 2 Samsung monitors and it appears to be unique to this manufacturer.

Awesome! good job youve put the instructions on here or i wouldnt have figured it out..
Why cant they just use sRGB as default in the first place? or is it just a problem with Samsung monitors?
