Hi, I've been LOVING my Dell S2716DG since I got it a month or so ago. I adjusted colors with an ocn user's icc profile and it's fantastic! however, I think at the same time, I noticed an issue with Windows Photo Gallery where anything that it displays is much darker than it actually is. Pulling items up the the Photos app or uploading them online shows them as normal. Changing the ICC profile back to default also seems to do nothing. Any ideas? did I mess up some secondary settings in color management? I looked around a bit but I haven't messed with them before and I'm a little hesitant to make it worse.  Any help would be really appreciated!

Anyone?  still haven't managed to figure it out.  About to do a fresh windows install this afternoon if there's no other ideas.  I really hate that "Photos" app, otherwise I'd just use that
