I'm going insane with colour calibration

No.3960864 View ViewReplyOriginalReport
Alright /p/ it's again that time in my life where I change screen and I destroy my life trying to get windows colour calibration to behave.

I have a new issue, never had it before, or maybe it's something I never noticed having only standard gamut screens, so I'm begging for someone to help out here.

I have a new screen. It's wide gamut, but I'm setting it to sRGB. I have an i1 Display Pro from Xrite for calibration. I have another screen which is not wide gamut, it was my main screen until backlight started getting too cloudy, so I got this new one (MSI Optix MAG274QRF-QD)

Here's the deal: after calibration, which appears to be successful, I still have oversaturated colours in most windows spaces, BUT colour managed programs like Photoshop behave perfectly. Both my two screens appear to just not have the ICC loading for anything that's not photoshop. I can screenshot a Chrome window and pasting it into Photoshop gives me the correct colour, but if I just drag the chrome window, it's wildly off.

Is there any way to solve this? I've been deep into Windows Colour Management and I can't find a solution. Send help. It's especially bad in Explorer, where all image previews have turbo acid reds.
