UI too bright

[bewnt]

I’ve had no problem with Blender for the past year, but today on startup the entire UI was brighter than usual. Even the video in the Video Sequence editor pane is brighter than the original video, so it’s not a theme issue. Neither is it my monitor’s issue - all other software on my machine are on regular brightness. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated! (Blender v2.71)

Blender Interface (2.70a) suddenly extremely washed out and bright

Hi! I tried googling this issue but there was only one other thread about this (on this forum), but unfortunately no solution was found in that thread. A couple of days ago my Blender interface suddenly turned very bright. Everything is light and washed out, as if someone turned on a curve filter or something. I tried resetting my default theme, in case something got messed up there, but it still happened. I re-downloaded Blender, but it was still weirdly bright. I decided to download the late…

Thanks, didn’t find that thread. It’s the same issue, but there aren’t solutions in the thread!

If it helps, I’m on Win10 with Nvidia GTX 960M.

This isn’t an issue when using a later version (Blender v2.79b), but a fix for the bright UI would be fantastic since I have a lot of settings and configurations tied to v2.71.
