I'm trying to edit the picture using selection brush. When I selected the area I see the selection. Then I want to invert the selection. Clicking the menu option all selection disappeares. A can't select certain area on the image. 

I need select everything except area of screen.

Welcome to the forums @ZERO6087

Can you show us a full-screen screen-grab showing your initial selection and another showing what you see after you have inverted the selection?
Also, it’s worth noting that pixel selections don’t work on Image layers (they have “(Image)” after their name in the Layers Panel), but it does work on Pixel layers (they have “(Pixel)” after their name in the Layers Panel).
Note: In this particular case I would probably use the Rectangular Marquee Tool to get a good crisp rectangle selection.

I am thinking this is down to having multiple Artboards in your document. Plus from your screen shots I can't be certain that you have the Pixel layer selected in Arboard1. Kind of / sort of looks like you have at least three Artboards selected plus the Pixel layer in # 1.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.

There are known issues with having multiple Artboards and inverting pixel selections.
