    Color difference when previewing files

    Have a look at the very different colours that are seen in the background of this image when seen in Irfanview and when viewed in a browser (or in windows photo viewer). The color shift to blue is very noticeable.

    What's odd is that I was even able to take a screen capture and save the resulting file in Irfanview and the color difference is still visible. This is the first time I've noticed this but I'm wondering if Irfanview has been distorting colors in images as long as I've been using it? Can anything be done?

    Check to see if you have enabled Colour Management in Settings, Zoom/Colour Management.

      Color management is not enabled.

      Should I enable it? What setting is recommended for most screen (unprinted) work?
