Windows 11 has been released almost three months ago now. There are inevitably bugs left and one of them annoys photo retouching enthusiasts. Indeed, the OS may distort the colors if you are using a third party application since the last update.

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem. It concerns third-party photo editing software coupled with an HDR display. Sometimes (not in all cases), the colors displayed on the screen are not correctly reproduced, which can be quite disabling. For example, white can be turned into bright yellow.

This bug does not come from the software concerned, but from Windows 11. There is therefore no point in updating them. We just have to wait for the patch from Microsoft which should soon arrive. It is even already available in the preview version of the OS, for the moment reserved for Insiders. If all goes well, this patch should be deployed during the month of January.

Windows 11 latest update riddled with bugs

The December update, named Windows 11 KB5008215, is dragging along a lot of very annoying bugs in addition to that of the colors. Indeed, some users noticed that they could no longer apply a cumulative update, systematically displayed error messages.

Even more (and more annoying) users have found performance concerns related to their SSD and NVMe storage. Other small minor bugs, such as the fact that Serbian disappears from the language choices of the OS, are also pointed out. All of these bugs should be fixed in the future update, much to our relief.

As a reminder, Windows 11 was released on October 5. He brings a total visual overhaul compared to Windows 10 and can be downloaded and installed (free) directly from the official website.
