After I installed BF1, I needed to lower the brightness in game because I was running my monitor, an Lenovo Legion Y25f already at a high contrast, with warm colors. The problem is that once the game crashed and now, somehow my monitor has switched it's contrast and brightness to the one in game, which is a very dark and warm color that fries my eyes. Could it be the graphics card? This is a 1060 in a laptop so could have I done something very wrong or what?
I reinstalled the driver for the gpu. I did a factory reset on my monitor but I've got no idea how to fix it. If you have any ideas on how to fix this problem, it would be great.

Thanks a lot, Artur.
 
Did you reset the game settings to default already?

I'd roll back to defaults everywhere and then make up the balance of what's what. Your idea is plausible - software settings could have been passed on to hardware defaults or vice versa.

Well, if I tell you what change, you won't believe it how stupid it was. The game... changed my HDR settings directly in windows. Since it's not a hdr monitor, ofc it would look ugly and too much saturation. Thanks a lot for the help, what you said got me somehow to the hdr part.
