Looking for a Win10 resolution profile switcher program.

Go to solution Solved by CasePB,

I just bought an LG CX 48" and I like having my desktop resolution on 3840x1600 which is ultrawide.  It makes it much easier to use with a mouse and keyboard.  When playing games with a controller though, I like using the entire screen in 3840x2160.  However a handful of games (usually Japanese made ones) have quite a bit of trouble doing this.  I have no idea why, something about the desktop resolution not being 16:9 maybe?  The only way to get around this issue is to set the desktop resolution to 3840x2160.  Constantly having to switch resolutions and then also refresh rates because it sets it to 60 instead of 120 every time is a huge pain in the butt.

 

So I'm looking for a way to create resolution and hz profiles that will allow me to easily swap between 3840x1600 and 3840x2160.  Anyone know of any good programs?  I tried something called HRC and it was a real mess.     

 

[EDIT]  Looks like a created this prematurely.  Monitor Profile Switcher seems to be doing exactly what I want.
