Hello,
Changed my monitor to an Acer K272HUL connected via DisplayPort to my MSI GTX 760. All is mostly well, but there seems to be a "feature" turned on somewhere to fade all inactive windows and controls to grayscale/greyscale while a directx window is in the foreground (movies, games).
How do I stop this?

It "wakes" from this if I switch to a different window, but is really unsettling because I cant find any reference to this "feature" anywhere, much less how to disable it.

As always, any help is appreciated.

ps. had to take 2nd photo with camera as screen capture still comes out color (despite it appearing greyscale)
