What exactly happens when you start normally? At which point does the screen go blank? Does it just go black or do you loose signal to the monitor? (most monitors have an indicator for no signal, or go into a power saving mode)
“By default, dispcalGUI saves the profiles and associated data in a hard-to-find folder:
c:\Users\<yourname>\AppData\Roaming\dispcalGUI\storage
So you might consider doing: File → Choose save path … and selecting a folder that is easier to find.”
The program really requires a simple on and off autoload function, understandable to the user. There are several options for autoloading: (1) System boot from the ‘VCGT’ tag of the current profile set for this device in the system itself; (2) booting with the “DisplayCAL Profile Loader”; (3) Download using third-party software, including software, image editing and / or viewer. In the current solution, it is not visible how the software will behave when booting for the system. And since the place where the download comes from differs by logic from the system settings for autoloading, then the programs cannot then detect the locations for storing and running data, as software that is responsible for it.
No thread hijacking please. Also, reading through your post, I have a hard time understanding what you are actually saying. Please open a separate thread.
Is there a way to let DisplayCAL load another profile on startup – for example a profile I’ve generated with monitor manufacturer software, but to benefit from the higher resolution of DisplayCAL loader?

It is doing it by default. It loads whatever profile you set as default display profile in Win OS color management configuration. Also disable that app LUT loader (XRGamma for example)
Just remember that most software like Xrite ones will use a low bitdepth loader, hence once it kicks in after that 3rd party calibration and calibration is truncated untill you reboot
Thank you!
