Is it me or does windows 10 look darker?. The brightness is ok its just the colour of the blacks look more darker then normal. Ive not touched my monitor settings and ive looked and they are same as always had them. The blacks look jet black and first noticed it 2 days ago on Elite. Ive also tried it on my other monitor and is same. Any one else seen this?.

@skipper847: Not unless you've switched to from LED to IPS or OLED monitor, higher quality LED monitor or played with the monitor settings - no Win 10 does not change the colors.

@skipper847: Nvidia GPU? They have, or at least had, a bad habit of outputting limited range RGB over HDMI. Some TVs are limited range RGB, but monitors are full range, so sending limited to a monitor makes the picture look washed out. An OS update could have updated your drivers and fixed it. If that's the case, what you have now is normal, and before was lighter than normal.
