Yellow spot on a MacBook Pro 15" screen

Recently my MacBook Pro 2018 15" has started showing yellow patches on the screen. They sometimes disappear and then they come back again. It looks like liquid has leaked, it is possible to move the yellow spot around a bit by (very) gently touching the screen.


Has anyone had this before? If yes, how did you get rid of it? Was a repair necessary, or is there another way to fix this?


MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 11.4

Start with a new Administrator user. See if you still get his error. If not, then it is a misconfiguration in your current user. If you do, then it is an issue with the screen, and it is time to get the screen replaced.
