Hi,

Is there something I can change in my FF parameters to get same colors than Chrome ? Is there a particular option to "fix" ?

See in my screenshot the blue gradient color starts at top with #4fbefe and color render change from Firefox to other browsers !

Do you both use custom monitor profiles?

This site has a test page and article on settings but using standard Windows 10 RGB with nothing custom, it all looks the same to me:

You'll notice that ICC v4 profiles are not enabled in your Firefox (box is not purple). You could try enabling it and see whether it makes any difference. Here's how:

(1) In a new tab, type or paste about:config in the address bar and press Enter/Return. Click the button accepting the risk.

(2) In the search box in the page, type or paste gfx.color_management.enablev4 and pause while the list is filtered

(3) Double-click the preference to switch the value from false to true

That takes effect after the next time you Quit and restart Firefox. It does seem to make Firefox pass the following test, but whether that will improve colors on your monitor, I don't know:

Type in about:config on your Firefox address bar. Use the filter field to search for color_management. Update the following fields:

gfx.color_management.mode Set to 1 to enable color management for all rendered graphics.

gfx.color_management.enablev4 Set to true to enable ICC v4 profile support.

Restart Firefox.
