Orange tint issue using dual screens

[ExTek]

Hey there,

I'm having some issues with certain programs on my computer turning a slight bit orange when it goes to my secondary monitor. Examples:

(it turns orange when it's "technically" on the other screen

Same goes with Spotify, Discord and other various programs. My drivers are up to date, and I am not using any programs that mess with the colors.

Any help would be useful. It's starting to really bug me.

I had this happen to my work computer, pretty sure I deleted the installed color profiles and created a new one

It's just very annoying. I forgot to mention that it also flickers from time to time. I really don't want to but I may just reinstall windows. But I'd prefer not to.

If your using Windows 10 check the "night mode" it tints your screen yellow so it's easier on the eyes at night.

Nope it's not enabled on either of my screens. It does it at any time of the day. It doesnt tint the whole screen, itll just be a single window :((

I think it's something with my graphics drivers but they are up to date, and ive even tried rolling back and it didnt work.

another example of what the orange tint is doing. Spotify and Discord are around the same color. It'll be single windows that do the tint, not a screen.

Also found other posts about similar issues on the Surface Pro 4, flickering could possibly be caused by adaptive brightness

Thank you so much. I changed my color profiles, and apparently it happens because Windows didn't install the driver for my second monitor correctly.

Thank you so much, been dealing with this for a month.

There shouldn't be any need for a driver when using a second display. Weird.

For using it, you don't. My CPD-G500 would have bad color and wouldnt let me scale to the correct resolutions til the driver is set, but could be a problem with it just being older tech. Even with my newer monitors (Asus 24" LCD's) I had to set the temperature of them so they weren't overly washed out either.
