Windows 11 Pro 23H2 (build 22631.4249) test laptop, Windows 11 Pro v24H2 (build 26100.2894) main PC
Hello!

My nVidia Geforce GTX 1050 Ti gives a very saturated image on my Sony 19" TV monitor. I change the Digital Vibrance setting from 50 to 36 to make the colors look normal. I do this since Windows 10 and all Windows 11 versions. Usually this setting was kept until I upgraded the nVidia graphics drivers. I noticed that after the upgrade to 24H2 this setting is reset to default 50 and I have to change it every time I restart my PC. I tried to disable the WindowsColorSystem scheduled task as suggested in the following video, but it didn't work. Any ideas to fix this bug?

Thank you in advance.

I don't know how to set it up, but maybe create a task in Task Scheduler to set the Vibrancy to 36, every time Windows boots?

    Still assembled, still runs. Haven't turned it on for 13 years?
I also posted at nVidia forums and they said is a known bug. Probably a newer driver version will fix it. I will just wait and see. Thanks

It is easier to adjust the Digital Vibrance. If I try to change the color from the TV settings I cannot get the desired image as it also affects other factors, not only saturation.

PS: Just checked, the TV doesn't allow changing any image settings in VGA mode, only "Cool", "Neutral" and "Warm". Not really helpful.
