My laptop has been having this weird behavior with videos, especially if they come from streaming sources. Green objects, such as trees, lawns, and leaves are rendered in grey. Sometimes it happens with youtube videos, but not always. Same thing happens with pink objects like skin, which are rendered in grey as well. Again, the same thing happens with sky blue, which is grey. I wish I had an image to show you. What could cause this? The laptop is a few months old and this feature has only just begun to be shown. Thanks.

EDIT

This is what my videos look like. In the left image you can see that there is too much grey in the background. The player jumping in the dark shorts has, in reality, blue shorts, which are rendered in grey. In the other image, the painted area in reality is blue, as is the dark jersey. Why does this happen? I have even updated my Adobe Flash Player, but to no avail. enter image description here

You should check this out https://pcmonitors.info/articles/using-icc-profiles-in-windows/

I know this is not the absolute solution but I can't leave comments, so I'll leave this as an answer. I hope this will help you mate

Edit: A photograph or video that shows the problem will come in handy

P.s.

You should try to uninstall graphics driver and download the graphics driver from official vendors website (Intel, Nvidia, MSI, Toshiba, Asus, Acer etc.) and install the graphics driver that you downloaded. Then go for a restart and check the problem. If it still persists, there is something wrong with your windows color profiles or your laptops screen. If literally nothing helps, you should call the helpline and ask the procedure of repairing. Then you ask for repair of your laptop and wait the service to fix it, I hope I can help

Edit 2:

You should check your graphics cards preferences, because some gpu's are managing the entire color profile on its own so it's better to look there.

To check your graphics card, simply right click on somewhere blank in your desktop. Then open your graphics card program and go to ' Video / Color Preferences ' part, then look for ' Restore to default settings ' button, then click that button and save the changes. This will solve the problem for sure..

If this trick can't solve your problem, you should bring your laptop to the service, because it might be an hardware issue. But If you want to try to fix more before sending it to repair, you should make a bootable Ubuntu flash disk and boot Ubuntu, see if the problem persists in Ubuntu. If the problem still persists even If in Ubuntu, then it must be a hardware issue which means that you must get it to repair..

Hope these suggestions will solve your problem :) Take care
