      I thought I caught it doing that on my current windows 8 system too. not certain though.

      I found it the most when using the built in screen shot functionality. Since I switched to Greenshot, I never see the original issue

            Does the picture vary in some way or just the background?

              I see that the fur on the cat is more yellow in the first shot.

                Slightly, but that may be because the background is an off-white.

                  Not sure what you mean?
                  This is what I see from his two pictures when I put them side by side. The one on the left is definitely yellowed.

                    Yep you're right sorry. I thought it may have been yellowed in contrast to the background of Windows Photo Viewer. Now I see it is in the picture itself.

                      Righto, after some more Google-Fu and some rewording, I found this: http://www.nextofwindows.com/how-to-fix-windows-photo-viewer-displaying-yellow-or-orange-tint-for-white-and-transparent-images/

                      It appears to be similar to steps that I have tried before but the last part seems to be a bit different. I'll give it a go when I next get a chance (hopefully tonight)
