Illustrator turning all PNGs into negatives (with or without yellow background) after saving and reopening document
I'm on Windows 10 pro, version 21H1. The version of illustrator I have is 26.3.1.
When working on a document, CMYK or RGB, in illustrator with my Adobe color settings synced across all programs, all PNGs whether 16 bit or 8 bit turn negative. I've attached before and after screenshots.
I've never had this happen before and I work with PNGs everyday, I spoke to and adobe support rep yesterday and gave them an AI filer where I tested PNGs vs JPEGs out. JPEGs are totally fine, only issue is with placing PNGs and I rather place a PNG than put in a huge transparent photoshop image.
It happens to all PNGs, even the ones I've made via exporting a vector image as a PNG.

I’ve been linking them, not embedding! It doesn’t seem to happen when the image is embedded. I rather link for keeping file size down and ease of editing, and I keep my linked images close to my design document storage wise.

Do you embed them or keep them linked? I assume the former, because otherwise would mean Ai alters the source files... id doesn't happen, doesn't it?
