Fix 5\u00a0 – Try System Recovery Tools<\/h3>\n

Multiple recovery tools can be used to ensure that your display resolution settings are made accessible again. You see, after performing all the shared fixes, you must be able to fix the issue. However, if it persists, you may be a victim of corrupt windows. In this situation, recovering is the only method that might help.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Here are things that you can try –\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

5.1 – Try using the safe mode\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

Step 1 – Shut Down your PC
\n<\/span>Step 2 – Press the power button to turn it back on
\n<\/span>Step 3 – Use the Functionality Key ( In some cases, the Tab and in Some Cases, F12) to open advanced booting options.
\n<\/span>Step 4 – Use the F5 key or Press 5 to choose Safe Mode with Networking from the available options.
\n<\/span>Step 5 – Navigate to check if the Display Resolution settings are now available.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you have tried accessing the screen resolution settings normally, you should try logging on to your PC using the safe mode. It removes all the third-party applications<\/a> that may be causing hindrances in your PC settings and runs the machine raw. If the safe mode does not get it done, you may be required to restore your PC.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

5.2 –\u00a0 Reset PC\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Step 1 – Press Win+I to bring up the System Settings window.
\n<\/span>Step 2 – Look up Recovery options in the menu.<\/span><\/p>\n

\nStep 3 – You may find the Reset this PC button after opening the Recovery options. Click on it.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"app<\/p>\n

Step 4 – Follow the instructions that appear to keep your files safe and reset the system to factory settings.<\/span><\/p>\n

System reset is the ultimate way to help you resolve the settings issue. Considering that you have corrupt system files on your PC, it is better to replace them with a fresh new installation<\/a>, and that is exactly what the Reset this PC button helps you do.<\/span><\/p>\n

Fix 8 – Update Your PC<\/h3>\n

If you have not updated your PC for a while, and are still using an obsolete version of Windows on your PC, there are chances that system settings will not work as effectively and issues like can\u2019t change display resolution will appear. Hence, keeping your PC updated regularly is a must.<\/p>\n

Step 1 – Press Win+I to launch System Settings.
\nStep 2 – From the left pane, Click on Windows Updates.
\nStep 3 – In the updates window, click on Check for Updates and the system will now fetch the latest updates.<\/p>\n

Once the updates are available, simply download and install them right away. Your PC will require a restart hence you should not leave your work open in the background as you may lose all your progress.<\/p>\n

A lot of you may be wondering what to do if the issue has appeared after installing an update. Well, for some PCs the display resolution settings greyed out error appears on an outdated OS and for some the latest update brings bad luck. Well, if your PC is using an older version, update it today and if the issue has appeared after a recent update, then check out the next fix!<\/p>\n

Fix 7 – Uninstall Latest Updates<\/h3>\n

If the issue has appeared after you recently updated your PC, chances are that the latest updates are unstable or your PC cannot handle those updates. In either case, the best way is to uninstall the last update. To do so, simply follow these steps –<\/p>\n

Step 1 – Press Win+I to launch System Settings.
\nStep 2 – From the left pane, Click on Windows Updates.
\nStep 3 – In Windows Updates, navigate to Update History where you will find all the updates listed.
\nStep 4 – Scroll down to find the Uninstall updates option.
\nStep 5 – After you have found the same, you can see a list of updates that can be uninstalled. Click on the Uninstall button corresponding to it and the process will begin.<\/p>\n

After starting the process, all you need to do is follow on-screen instructions and the PC will restart once you have successfully uninstalled the update. With that being said, once your PC is back to previous versions, you should be able to change the display resolution easily.<\/p>\n

Other than these fixes, if you are using a dedicated third-party GPU such as your AMD, Nvidia, or Intel graphics processors, you can use their application interface to try and manipulate the Display resolution settings, but that is just a way out to ignore the issue, not a solution.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Hope all these fixes help you resolve the issue. Thanks for reading. That will be all, catch you in the next one!<\/span><\/p>\n
