U2720Q, color profile missing
I am working with a pair of Dell monitors. Colors are extremely important to my work. However my U2720Q looks a little more saturated. I believe it is related to the color profile.
My secondary monitor (U2718Q) has the installed color profile but I don't find the option for the U2720Q =U2720Q

Did you download and install the U2720Q driver? Then open the Color Management, down arrow to U2720Q, then associate the U2720Q to its icm?

It's because is a near full P3 display. All non color managed applications are going to be oversaturated. Windows desktop or Office or Windows explorer are not color managed apps. There are a lot more, almost all of them.
Monitor driver profile will show proper colors on color managed apps like Photoshop, only in them.
For using non color managed apps you'll need to use sRGB mode if available, or use saturation menu with a colorimeter (WLED PFS colorimeter correction) and make it behave like an sRGB display. You cannot use monitor driver profile "U2720Q.icm" with color managed apps while you are using these srgb-like OSD presets, you should use a sRGB profile instead while in those modes.
