Yesterday, Windows 7 notified me that it has some new updates. I allowed it to install them and from that moment I have problems with Photoshop. When I opened it first time, after Win 7 installed the updates, it told me that my screen is defect and I have to calibrate it or something like this. It doesn't display the colors properly. For instance white is yellow, gray is brown and so on. But if I save for web the file, Photoshop displays properly the colors in that box. I opened Illustrator and Flash to see if in there are same problems and these two display properly the colors. Only PS doesn't work. So I unistalled it, I installed it again. I installed the last driver of my video card. I downloaded it from nvidia website. And same problems with PS. I have all these problems with PS since Win 7 installed those updates. Any suggestions to fix the problem?

It seems like the recent updates that Windows 7 installed may have caused an issue with color calibration specifically in Adobe Photoshop. Here are some troubleshooting steps you can try to resolve this problem:
1. Check Color Profile Settings:
- Open Adobe Photoshop.
- Go to Edit > Color Settings.
- Check if the color settings are correct. You might need to reset them to default.
2. Calibrate Your Monitor:
- Windows 7 has a built-in tool for calibrating your display. You can access it by typing "calibrate display color" in the Start menu search and following the instructions.
3. Update Graphics Drivers:
- It's great that you updated your NVIDIA graphics card driver. Make sure it's the correct driver for your system and that it's installed correctly.
4. Reset Photoshop Preferences:
- Sometimes, preferences in Photoshop can cause display issues. You can reset Photoshop preferences by holding down Alt + Ctrl + Shift immediately after launching Photoshop.
5. Check Windows Update History:
- Review the recent Windows updates that were installed. If there were specific updates related to graphics or color management, you might consider uninstalling them.
6. Reinstall Photoshop:
- If the problem persists, consider uninstalling Photoshop again, and before reinstalling, make sure to remove any residual files manually. You can also try installing an older version of Photoshop to see if the issue persists.
7. Contact Adobe Support:
- If none of the above steps work, it's recommended to contact Adobe Support for further assistance. They may have specific troubleshooting steps tailored to Adobe Photoshop. By following these steps, you should be able to troubleshoot and hopefully resolve the color display issue you're experiencing in Adobe Photoshop.
