About ICC
The International Color Consortium, which Adobe, Apple, Kodak, Microsoft and others formed in 1993, made the profile color management runs on. Windows keeps profiles as .icc and .icm in its color folder, the Mac in its ColorSync folders, and screens, printers and papers come with their own.
A profile is a 128 byte header, naming its device class, its colors, its version and its rendering intent, then a table of tags: its description, its white point, its red, green and blue and their tone curves, or the tables a printer's profile turns colors through.
Filepeek reads it into a card of what it's for, who made it and when, its white point and tone curves, and draws its colors on the CIE 1931 diagram against sRGB's. A named color profile lists its colors as swatches, and every tag is listed with its size.

Questions
How do I see what an ICC profile is for?
Drop it on this page. Its card says the device and colors it's for, who made it, and how far its colors reach against sRGB's.
How do I install an ICC profile?
On Windows, right-click it and choose Install Profile, or add it in Color Management. On a Mac, copy it into the ColorSync Profiles folder in your Library.
What is the difference between ICC and ICM?
None: ICM is the name Windows gave the same files. Both open here.
Why do my prints look different from my screen?
A print goes through the printer's and the paper's profile, and the screen shows through its own. When an app takes the wrong one, or none, colors shift. A profile's card here says what it was made for.
