@Ulvarin could your case be similar to this issue #2907 ? User seem to resolve it with the driver update

@Ulvarin did you had a chance to see if a clean driver install "fixes" visual mode behavior on your system ?

Cause what is (most likely) happening in your case is that default gamut / color settings on your device from clean boot is by some reason is different from what AsusSplendid.exe (that both G-Helper and AC use to toggle visual modes and gamuts) sets as a Default Visual mode.

Hey,
It does not and its been checked on 3 g18's :)
We have 3 units of g18 2024 (me and my 2 work friends)
All of them do same thing,
Laptop boots ok, and at some point of windows load causes this "visial darker" bug and clicking anything related to visual mode fixes it :)

All of them had SSd's changed and windows is installed cleanly (pro version).
Latest nvidia drivers and latest intel arc drivers.

Yea same thing happens with armoury crater as well (one of my LAZY FRIENDS is not using ghelper yet because hes on vacation, but ive just booted his laptop and its the same.

But i think you are right, it could be caused by intel arc drivers or asus system control interface.

@Ulvarin then if you prefer Visual Mode version of colors for your display the solution would be to forcibly apply even Default Native gamut every time app starts (or your laptop boots)

Just set Native gamut in G-Helper and then open %appdata%\GHelper\log.txt. Copy last call of AsusSplendid.exe with all the params from there and create a new task in windows Task Scheduler to run that on windows start (or user login).

this is the only one all of us are using :)
Ill wait with that fix for driver updates or something (especially form asus), im curious what is causing that on all units.
