Thanks and sorry but there's nothing there. I copied and pasted too. :)

I wonder if there should not be at least a factory default profile from your mac hardware.
(in my 2nd screenshot below called "Werkseinstellung")

You also can check what profile your monitor is using in "Apple Menu > System-Preferences > Monitor > Colors", then with the active profile selected click on "Open profile" which opens another window. There do a right-click on the title to see a pop-up window showing a file path.

Click on the triangle before your "DELL U21..." to see more, you might need to select one item ...

I think for the OP the default is the built-in factory default profile for monitors using HDMI ports, with the "HD" one for high definition TV & the "SD" one for standard definition TV resolutions. If so, it can't be changed (because it is in System/Library) & probably is not a particularly good match for the color characteristics of the Dell monitor.
