    Color bit depth is at 6-bit on Display properties of Windows 10 pro

    Try the below suggested steps and check if the suggested options are available to change the Color bit Depth value



    1. Right click on the desktop and select NVIDIA Control Panel.
    2. Expand the Display, and then highlight the Change resolution.
    3. On the right side, check if there is 8 bpc listed under
      Output color depth.
    4. You may select 8 bpc and restart the device to witness the changes.

    Color Bit Depth is Stuck at 8 bit - Display adapter mode says 32 bit

    Build 17.rs_prerelease677.180520-0940 is my current release. There was an update that failed and changes were rolled back.

    In Settings:

    Now in the Windows Display settings says "Resolution: 1920 x 1080 (recommended)"

    Click on "Advanced Settings" Both monitors say "Bit depth: 8-bit"

    Click "Display adapter properties (either monitor)"

    AMD Radeon HD 7700 Series Properties opens.

    Click "List all modes"

    "1920 by 1080, True Color (32 bit), 60 Hertz" is selected!

    The Display, Desktop, Photos, Movies are in 8-bit 256 Color mode and look really bad!

    How to fix this?

    Windows has problems responding at times.

    I rolled the Display driver back to a previous release... Had to reset the computer because it froze.

    On reboot it is on the rolled-back driver level, but still wrong.
