Lightroom Develop changed image UPON START UP

[tylerg59938137]

I am new to lightroom and just downloaded the free trial.  At this time I am already frustrated with the program and my free trial is quickly dwindling.  I imported a variety of photos and moved through the Library menu just fine. I proceeded to the Develop phase and upon clicking the Develop button my photo changes.  This is done with any photo I enter into the develop phase.  Please keep in mind this is BEFORE i edit the picture.  The program seems to be doing it on its own.  I have restarted, cleared photos and imported different ones and still the same result.  Below is a screen shot of what I am getting.  Has anyone had this before?  Can you lend some knowledge to a newbie?  It is much appreciated as I have heard good things about Lightroom.  Again, my free trial is going quickly and I would like to attempt to develop pictures to see if I would like to purchase this program.

Thank you

A common suggestion to fix-

Open the Preferences (Ctrl+,) Click the Performance tab, and remove a check-mark from the option- [Use Graphics Processor]

Restart Lightroom.

Thank you for the reply but this did not solve the problem.

Next suggestion-

Check your monitor profile-  https://www.lightroomqueen.com/articles-page/how-do-i-change-my-monitor-profile-to-check-whether-its...

I am also curious- How did you get that Yellow-Green background in the Develop module?  (My options are White to Black)

This may also be an indication something is not right with the monitor profile.

Again, thank you for the reply but little has changed.  I have went through both steps listed above and no luck.  Below is the current result.  The first picture is the "Library Tab"  the second picture is the "Develop Tab."

That is almost certainly the graphics card acting up on a windows machine. Make sure you have the latest driver installed for your card and if that doesn't help, make absolutely sure graphics card acceleration is turned off. It can also be a bad monitor profile as already mentioned but it appears you tested that.
