I was playing CE the other day when my game locked up and the only thing I could do was start the new Windows update 24H2. After updating Windows I went back into CE (through STEAM) and clicked on “CONTINUE” where I left off. I was in the 1513 American CE server. When the game loaded it looked like I was using an old 16 color version. So I checked my Raedon drivers and there was an update there also. I updated that and went back into CE and got the same colors. I rebooted my PC thinking that would solve the issue but it didn’t. I took a screenshot of what I was seeing but when it came up in STEAM it looked perfect and not like what I was seeing. Every other game I have has no color issues. Is anyone else having this problem? I also uninstalled and re-installed CE and that didn’t help. I also did the STEAM File Verification for CE and all files were ok.
Im having the same exact issue and trying to find a fix for it
If you have a gaming setup on your PC for CE, you may take extras steps to restore it. I mean like reset to factory defaults and empty passwords. It could update your files, too. I doubt it will let you restore backwards unless you have the “restore from backup” already enabled.
I bought win11 already installed from Best Buy, so a factory restore took about ~10 min. It was the only option for a gaming PC/Xbox. 
I use it for business, and it runs great!
Turn off Auto-HDR in the windows settings. It’s a new windows feature.
@Sawce you too!

You gave very useful information. I don’t have the problem but I’m glad to know. thank you <3
Thanks for the reply. CE is not that important a game for me to go through all of that since all my other games work fine.
That is a good idea! I will try that. It seems like an EZ thing to do.
