Whenever I fullscreen a game, such as hearthstone or overwatch, and it also used to happen to youtube videos aswell but it stopped with those, all the colours change. The reds turn into blues and other colours change aswell and it looks really trippy. It also sometimes flips it so my whole desktop is switched in colours, but the game colours are completely normal.

I would send an image of what it would look like, but when I screenshot the screen, it does not show the same colours as what I see in the game. All I can say is that it looks completely different. please let me know if you need any more info. If it is a driver issue, I do not know how to revert it back to what it was because I don't think I had this issue when I first got my laptop. Please let me know how to revert it back to normal.

hi, it did not work. I uninstalled it all and installed the least updated drivers back. I also noticed that this only happens when my display is at 1920x1080. When I change it to the other resolutions and play something on fullscreen, it does not happen. But as soon as I switch back to 1920x1080, everything just turns blueish and like different colours. The games look fine in general graphics wise, but the colours are all different for some reason and it is not pleasant to look at at all.Sometimes it inverts and all the colours on my widows screen is all switched but the game looks fine. Here are some photos i took with my phone of what it looks like:

(This is what its supposed to look like. It shows it like this when I press the windows key so it is not fullscreen):

Ok... This is really interesting. Since i dont really know how the problem is actually originated but i kinda have a temporal solution to it.
I would just change the whole pc resolution to 1920x1080 and then, manually adjust the color settings on the CCC panel.
For me It looks like whenever you force 1920x1080 resolution it somehow changes the RGB settings aswell...
