Windows 11 has a new tool for HDR monitors that can help improve the color accuracy of your images. The tool is called “ColorEase.” ColorEase is a software application that allows you to change the color balance of an image. You can do this by adjusting the hue, saturation, and lightness of each color channel. You can also use ColorEase to correct for any color casts in your image. This includes colors that may be caused by light sources such as sunlight or artificial light sources. ColorEase is available as a free download from Microsoft’s website.
The Windows HDR Calibration app, which was announced almost a year ago, is now finally available to download. The HDR Calibration tool lets you properly calibrate your HDR-capable display so that when you’re playing HDR content, colors look their best and you don’t see any overly bright or dark spots in your display.
All you need to do is fire up the tool, see the patterns it gives you, and tweak settings until those patterns are no longer visible.
HDR monitors and laptops are not on everyone’s desks just yet, but they’re becoming increasingly common. And if you have one, you probably want to enjoy it to the fullest if you’re watching a movie or a new season of a show on your music streaming service of choice.
You can download the HDR Calibration Tool from the Microsoft Store right now. It’s not included with the standard Windows 11 installation, but it could be included as an actual option in Settings in a future update.
