I recently upgraded MacOS Tahoe 2.2 to 2.3 and that has changed red color everywhere to this vibrant pink which I absolutely detest. Even my PowerPoint slides show red as pink. For the life of me I can’t figure out how to undo this. Please advise on how to get the red color back. Pink is not red.

Check System Settings > Accessibility > Display and make sure Color Filter is Off (red to magenta is characteristic of the red/green colorblindness filter):
If that's not it, check System Settings > Displays and make sure your Color Profile is set correctly (should be on the top option):

Also, in System Settings->Displays->Advanced, check that the Color Temperature is in the middle; and that Night Shift is off; and maybe also turn True Tone off, if you have it.
Does the color profile actually match the display you have? Your profile says "Mac Mini", and if so it may be helpful to know which display is attached, and if the color profile is the correct one for it.
The icons in your Dock screenshot look normal to me, News is red, Music a lighter red, Acrobat dark red, badges also red.
If you have another device, send a screenshot to that and view it. Or try connecting your Mac to another display (such as a TV) as a test.
Perhaps the color has been adjusted with settings on the monitor itself, not the Mac.
Thank you neuroanatomist. I have tried both but neither helps. Setting the display to the top option in the drop down menu changes the vibrant pink to a darker tone of pink. I still don't recover red.
Thank you very much. I was bale to resolve it after trying different color profiles, refresh rates and restart
