Step 01: Close the App: Begin by closing the application for which you want to enable or disable HDR support.

Step 02: Access App Properties: Right-click on the app’s icon and select the “Properties” option from the context menu.

Step 03: Navigate to Compatibility Tab: In the Properties window, switch to the “Compatibility” tab.

Step 04: Enable HDR Support: Under the “Settings” section, locate and check the “Use legacy display ICC color management” option. This will enable HDR support for the selected application.
