You have a bad display profile, delete it and choose device sRGB

With regards to the inability to close the program, are you clicking the Save button more than once? If saving a large file, it is possible that the button does not refresh immediately. There are cases where hitting the save button more than once during a save will cause the background process to fail.

Please try with a simple file, containing just a rectangle. Click the Save button, enter a filename and click Save. Add a new object, then click the Save button, ensuring you just click it once on the property bar. After the save completes, close the document / application. Does this work?

If the issue persists, please try disabling background tasks in Tools, Options, Global and repeat.

I have the same problem! My entire background is yellow. Where do I go to change the profile?

Hi Lisa,
I no longer hunt for locations. I do as follows.
1. Click on the Start icon in lower left corner of the monitor.
2. Click on Help and Support in the column on the right.
3. Enter the topic that you want in Help -- in this case enter Color Management.
My very own personal experience is that the best profile for the monitor is the one supplied by the manufacturer of the monitor. I've had nothing but trouble making my own profiles. However, many people like to use the various tools for making their own monitor profile.

Wow! That was so helpful! Thank you! I had no idea those functions existed. I did reach out to my industry engraving forum and based on some responses I was able to tweak the color management settings in Corel which resulted in my screen going back to white! So we will see tomorrow if those changes are still there, and then I will adjust the other computer monitors to match. I also need to make sure the tweaked settings do not affect other processes -- we run lasers as well as color sublimation, and they are different animals!
