Product: 17by4013dx
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 11

I have a new HP laptop and the colors are not only washed out, they lack color entirely. So I tried to follow the instructions and it says that there will be a "display color calibration wizard". There isn't, at least there is nothing indicating that the series of screens is a wizard. Then it says something incomprehensible to me: "move this window to the display you're adjusting". What does that mean? How do I move the window? To what display? I want to correct the color on all facets of the computer. I have no idea what they mean by this. So I'm stuck and I just want to set this to factory settings to see if that improves things. I have never seen worse color on a computer screen, and this is fresh out of the box. The "helpful hints" are worse than the original problem. Thanks.

Hello I find the links you provide too complex and requiring me to set gamma and whatnot is not in my skill set. Is there a one-button fix that will just set to the factory display settings? Thank you.
