Want to make sure photos, videos, and games look their absolute best on your screen? Calibrating your monitor is the key. Monitor calibration ensures colors and black levels are as accurate as possible, and you can do it easily with Windows' built-in tool.
We'll use the Windows Color Management settings to walk through the steps of calibrating your display. The steps below are for Windows 10, but the calibration tool is also available in Windows 7 and Windows 8.1. Before you start, make sure your monitor has been on for at least half an hour, so it's warmed up properly, and clean your monitor.
1. Right-click on the desktop and select Display settings

2. Click "Advanced display settings" at the bottom of the settings window.


4. Click "Color calibration" at the bottom of the advanced display settings window.


The wizard will walk you through adjusting your color settings. You'll:
- Set the display to the factory default color settings, if your monitor allows you to do that
- Adjust your display's gamma to match a sample image
- Adjust the brightness and contrast
- Adjust the color balance
6. At the end of the wizard, click Finish to save your settings.
