Everything is green, not just the photos.

(1) Check for a loose connection between your system unit and your monitor.
If you are using analog (VGA-type) connectors, a poor connection can cause a
color shift.

(2) Check for an adjustment on your monitor. If it's an LCD, and maybe even
if it isn't, it probably has some color balance adjustments. If in doubt,
put everything in the middle of the range.

(3) Adjust your video driver. Right-click on a blank area of the desktop,
go to Personalize, and hunt around for "Advanced" settings or anything with
your video driver's trademark on it. Eventually you'll probably find a way
to adjust curves and color balance. When you do, this chart will be useful:

If you click on "Fix" and select "auto adjust", does it help?

No, it doesn't. It's also not a lcd,balance... problem as the green stuff
shows only on windows photo gallery - everything beside that looks ok
(desktop, other programs) examine the photo closely. As I wrote at the
beginning - some most photo programs show ok, others (wpg, photoshop) show
green pictures (only wpg looks all greenish)

Sorry if you have already tried this, coming in late to this thread.

Have you tried settings in 'color management'
(control panel, hardware & sound, color management)
Some programs use the color profiles some don't

For your display device you may have an invalid profile, I suggest you note
what you have as profiles
and delete them (without a profile it will default to a pretty good set of
colors that should be consistent among your various display programs). (If
you do a system save before deleting them I think they will come back
with a restore).

Can't uninstall the photo profile as it is system one. Changed it to other
one - didn't help

I have a similar problm, but in my case the picture shows purple. Photoshop
and other programs display the picture fine, including the file explirer. It
just the stupid windows program that doesn't show properly

Delete the color profile that is associated with your monitor.
Start - Control Panel - Color Management
