So I got a new monitor a week ago and yesterday I made a quick calibration of the display, with DisplayCal. All went fine. I could calibrate the whitepoint to be accurate.
A few hours later, I wanted to do a thorough calibration and on a “custom 1” profile. When I got to the whitepoint calibration, the red bar was almost at zero, the green bar at ~80% and the blue at ~30%. No matter what changes I made to my color gain sliders, it hardly changed in the software, but I could clearly see the changes in the white square, underneath the I1 Display Pro. Even when the white was “pinkish” (red 100%, blue and green 0%), the calibration said I was oversaturated on green and barely had any red.
After hours of testing, re-installing DisplayCal and making sure before re-installation, that all folders related to the old installation was deleted manually, I didn’t solve the issue. And DisplayCal clearly remembered some settings from the previous installation, as it, with a fresh install, still remembered my settings. I deleted all in “C:\Program Files (x86)\DisplayCAL”, as well as the parent folders of where calibration reports are saved.
So today, just for fun, I logged into my Admin Windows account, started up DisplayCal and started a calibration. Here, the software worked as expected. The whitepoint was nearly perfect out of the box and reacted as expected to adjusting the RGB gains in my display’s settings. Back to my regular Windows profile, and the problem was still there.
