Description
Describe the bug
Some images show a completely wrong / inverted color, while others render correctly.
I couldn't find a "why", some images are just a simple screenshot of a site and the colors are totally inverted for som reaso on the QL preview.
Windows
Windows 11 Home ARM edition.
Version 26H1
OS build 28000.2525
Experience Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.26100.316.0
QuickLook Version: v4.5.0 from Microsoft Store
Example (right side is the correct one, on Windows Explorer Preview panel)
I tried some of the XML settings like <UseColorProfile>True</UseColorProfile>, no difference.
I have the app on other 2 machines, x64 W11 and never noticed this.
Is this an issue with Windows ARM?
