How to Install ICC Profiles in Windows - The Right Way

[@vstopin]

Just got my new Dell S2721DGFA and I'm more than happy with it. Thanks to your video reviews and all the hard work you've made!

[@dis_gaiii4826]

your content is awesome, i love that your monitor reviews always includes the professional creators aspect as well as the gaming aspect... I was looking for exactly this info in a monitor, luckily I stumbled on your channel! Thank you

[@mmmair]

High-quality underrated content! 👍 Keep up the good work!!

[@marukiddo1416]

I can’t believe your channel only has 12k subs, the production quality of these vids is top notch

[@SuperSigner10]

Your commentary is flawless.Thanks.

[@undead_pally]

I just wanted to say that a lot of your videos have REALLY helped me in my computer-knowledge building SO THANK YOU!! Subscriber for life! Keep being awesome!

[@SuperSuperka]

Just bought it because of your recomendation. Use it as second monitor. All good! But at first I set 120Hz and got a problem - the black level was super high, no matter of my tries to lower in settings. And when I set 144Hz I saw this contrast you told about immidiatly. Thank you!

[@askin2988]

I've just calibrated my new LG monitor using your guide, colors look milion times better. Great work!

[@Waleed-rs4mo]

Will be benefit if i play on console or it just pc thing ?

[@askin2988]

@@Waleed-rs4mo pc thing, you can't even do that on the console as far as I'm aware. Of course I'm talking about the ICC profile. You can still try to tweak the monitor settings

[@chronicle_4]

For Linux GUI, on Settings, there's a Color option normally where you can load / delete a color profile

[@PCPAyLOAD]

Very helpful video for my LG 38GN850-B. The monitor was not cheap and its nice to have it calibrated properly with the profile I wanted from Rtings.

[@zxidan4711]

Bro you are SOO underrated. Please never stop making these videos. You are THE best monitor reviewer. PERIOD. Also please if you ever get the chance, make a review of the Gogabyte G24F, it was I think the 2nd highest voted in your monitor review voting. Thanks!

[@techlessYT]

Thanks man! I'm really trying to get my hands on the G24F.

[@zxidan4711]

@@techlessYT Ty to you dude, for replying to a week late comment. 😁😁

[@RicardoMilosGachi]

It seems like it doesn't work for me, even tho I used the profile the way you showed it doesn't seem to make an impact

[@RoFKillaBacon]

Depending on the monitor you have it may be very close to accurate already, for example my monitor was like 95% there with some slight inaccuracy It may not be a big enough difference to actually notice without proper testing tools

[@chawk_]

i just subbed to your patreon to get the icc profile you made for the m27t20 and to support the channel. I realized that I do not know how to install an ICC profile (properly of course, its pretty intuitive). Aaand come to find you have a video on exactly what I need. Great content man, you got a sub in me.

[@Google_Censored_Commenter]

After you load the profile, does Displaycal need to be running at all times, or is that not necessary?

Thanks for the tutorial. Just got Gigabyte G24F (thanks for your review) but the colors still feel a bit greenish and blacks not as deep especially compared to my Asus ROG Strix-G laptop. Is this normal?

The default settings suck. This guy made a review with an excellent tutorial on how to calibrate it to look good.

[@radosuaf]

If you would be so nice to explain exactly how Windows 10 & Windows 11 treat SDR & HDR ICC profiles and if it is possible at all to calibrate HDR properly in Windows, that would be a VERY useful addition to the channel.

[@FrostPhoenix_]

Hey Techless, do these steps have to be repeated after system format or on a fresh windows install? Also your monitor reviews are always spot on & among the best quality out there. I purchased the MSI G241 due to my limited budget (+deal offer) and been so much satisfied with the product. The alterations after changing ICC reduced the innate oversaturation which the monitor tends to have and it makes a world of difference. Thank you for providing the best in class quality content out there straight out to the point with no huffles or useless banter, it is very rare to see that in the KZbin space these days.

[@malithaw]

Obviously

[@bilalkaka2163]

How's your experience going on after installing icc profile on g241 ? Should I install it too ? I'm using the same monitor but with default settings

[@FrostPhoenix_]

@@bilalkaka2163 Yeah I advise using Techless's G241 ICC Profile from his review video.

[@feliperamos3322]

Your videos are awesome, thanks for the content!!

[@jase7892]

thanks so much for this. my ICC profile being reset every single time I restarted my pc was driving me nuts. this software fixes windows awful color profile loader

[@kogarashixz]

Damn I didn't know the correct color profile hadn't been applied until I saw your video. Thank you so much for such amazing content.

[@lukeaimson7111]

Thank you. I've been looking for something like this. Well-deserved sub from me.

[@svetlifishing580]

Hello great video! Did your monitor must be on defaut settings before to install it?

[@personaldronerepair6141]

Fantastic and straight forward! Subscribed! Belled!

[@brandonlazo]

Perfect video!!! So for example I have to switch to adobe and srgb in photoshop if I am using photos with adobe rgb?

[@shahanv7]

quick simple questions, what monitor profile/settings we should be using while usinf these profiles?

[@deepakkajla]

ICC is to be used standalone or along with adjustments in monitor settings?

[@Reckxs]

AFAIK, its generally used along with custom settings tweaked in the OSD

[@techlessYT]

In conjunction with OSD settings. In my more recent videos I have dedicated "recommended settings chapter", which are the settings to be used with the ICC. I probably should have mentioned this in the video...

[@pumptesty2779]

Should I use your icc profile or should I do some testing

[@iamthechessmaster]

MSI G241 or Gigabyte G24F for someone who will play only on a Nintendo Switch, and use it as a monitor for a laptop (60hz) where I'll pretty much do Office-related, watch movies and read Reddit (?)

[@melissaaragon5661]

The link to download the icc profile on your other video is not working

[@mrkoddy]

Thank you! Do I have to keep displayCAL running in the task bar?

[@pedramhassanbeigi9009]

Thank you so much. I bought Lg 24GN600 and I wonder how can I activate the HDR

[@mobildisko579]

How do you make these icc profiles, do you manually set them one by one? When I do this, and we use the settings you suggested in the reviews, does it look like it was calibrated with a color calibration device?

[@domip3152]

Bis zum nächsten Mal 😂, Top Video 👍

[@miayashin8686]

Thank you for this. Helped a lot!

[@pietroalessandrini]

do ICC profiles apply globally or is it application specific: for example will my monitor look calibrated when looking at the desktop or while looking at pictures in windows photo?

[@SOYTIANGO]

Very nice video. What should I do with my monitor settings when I aplly an ICC profile? I mean the settimgs that I can change on the monitor itself (brightness, contrast, etc.).

[@BryAn-qx1gc]

Thank you for this tutorial ^_^ you made my day

[@sergiomarin7632]

Just a suggestion but maybe you can do a video showing how to clean an IPS monitor screen and how not to do it, there are videos around KZbin but none explaining it properly or being clear about it, cheers.

[@fcemonster]

Do you have a mac version of this tutorial.

[@prateekbhanushali1956]

But what if I chose color modes from the monitor's menu? I am a little confused about how the settings relate to each other. I brought a BenQ SW240 monitor and chose Rec709 to grade on Resolve.

[@MayhemMilIer]

SO THAT PROGRAM IS GONNA RUN IN THE BACKGROUND TO KEEP THE PROFILE ON?

[@mikebrownphotography2784]

If you change settings on your monitie, do you also have to install a ICC profile?

I have a quick question, i have downloaded your icc profile for my Huawei MateView GT27 Monitor and installed DisplayCal profile loader as well. My question is which color mode should my monitor be in its own osd settings?

[@AlvianMardhiSetya]

what if my display CAL wont load? the icon color just gray, i click the load name but still not load

[@ForSynthsSake]

Hi, I got everything calibrated but in the profile color management tool the monitors are reveresed monitor 1 shows as monitor two and vice versa. On the desktop if I right click the devices are numbered correctly. How do I correct this?

[@hotdog4927]

heyy so question, does this apply to games? and if it does, would it be worth it? or would stock settings be fine

[@thizzizwutitizz]

great content thanks for making this video!!

[@BidoTech]

Thank you very much for the information.

[@mryeti83]

Do you need to use both icc and Manual settings on the monitor to get good results or is it enough to just to look up some manual calibrations for the monitor?

Thanks for the tips. Very helpful

Superb instructional video.

[@Wissperwind]

Windows 10 photo view only reacts to the windows settings. All other applications only react to the DisplayCal Loader. Why is that?

[@flashh.4512]

Quick question: Can I uninstall DisplayCAL afterwards? :) thanks.

[@techlessYT]

I'm pretty sure that the profile loader doesn't work as a standalone tool.

[@hasanuguz6868]

Hi again should i always run displayCal program at the background? ı bought VG249Q with your suggest btw and its realy solid thanx.

[@techlessYT]

Yes, the profile loader should be running in the background.

[@EARMAKE]

so does this app should be in Autorun Windows and to work non stop ? I don't want additional autorun app in my system (

[@jamesbardsley5300]

Hi Techless - How can I add your recommended settings to an X-Box Series-X? Or just see your recommended settings so I can add them to my X-Box by hand?

[@MrFriteytb]

can you do a video on a good gaming chair?

[@GoodXylophone]

I have the LG 24GN650. Can I use the ICC profile you have for the 24GN600 since they are supposedly the same monitor but with a different stand?

[@techlessYT]

Yes, should work fine ✌️

[@GoodXylophone]

@@techlessYT Thank you! Watched your review of the GN600 a day after it was posted. The day before I was literally eyeing the GN650 on Amazon, going for $196. Totally loving it so far.

[@cyberbird451]

Great video! but what does "automatically fix profile associations mean" is it ok to turn this off with just one monitor?

[@AccessYT]

Do you have to use the ICC profile in windows to do it in displaycal, or can you just use it in displaycal?

[@naufalap]

do I have to reset my monitor setting to default or follow your monitor specific recommendation settings before applying the icc profile?

[@exebor7824]

Super useful, thank you!

[@ojomexa]

Please review the new MSI MD271UL monitor which I bought recently but there are still no icc profiles from the manufacturer and I am dedicated to audiovisual production, I hope you can try it, it is a 4k beast in my opinion, greetings, good day
