Thanks!

So, funny story...after a ton of troubleshooting, going back to previous restore points, etc, I finally found out that it was due to Nvidia Image Scaling, which I had turned on a couple days ago and didn't realize it caused a problem. No idea why NIS would cause monitor profiles to fail to load, but there you have it. It took me installing Monitor Profile Switcher and have a similar error with that to realize that something else was going on and it wasn't a DisplayFusion specific problem. I can now replicate the problem perfectly by enabling NIS, and then the problem goes away immediately after disabling it. I'll attach the troubleshooting info and my log file anyway just in case you want to look into it. ]]> RE: Monitor profiles no longer working https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/monitor-profiles-no-longer-working/?ID=8ca9c3ad-8d06-4e56-b1ac-1cfc318c47ed#52 Fri, 04 Mar 2022 14:37:58 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/monitor-profiles-no-longer-working/?ID=8ca9c3ad-8d06-4e56-b1ac-1cfc318c47ed#52 DisplayFusion Could you send me a copy of your troubleshooting info?

I've tried deleting and recreating profiles, tried disconnecting monitors to see if one was the problem, nothing. It just won't change profiles without error 87 coming up. I've even reverted back to version 9.9 and that had no effect. This was working for me only a couple weeks ago, and now it's not, and absolutely nothing has changed except that I updated my bios and some drivers. ]]> RE: Monitor profiles no longer working https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/monitor-profiles-no-longer-working/?ID=8ca9c3ad-8d06-4e56-b1ac-1cfc318c47ed#50 Tue, 01 Feb 2022 17:10:27 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/monitor-profiles-no-longer-working/?ID=8ca9c3ad-8d06-4e56-b1ac-1cfc318c47ed#50 DisplayFusion Okay interesting, could you delete and recreate the profile, and grab a copy of your troubleshooting info, and then try to load the profile and send over another copy of your troubleshooting info after you receive the error?

My main reason for this purchase was to be able to in a single keyboard shortcut quickly pivot from work > play essentially by enabling my TV and disabling my desktop monitors. ]]> RE: Monitor profiles no longer working https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/monitor-profiles-no-longer-working/?ID=8ca9c3ad-8d06-4e56-b1ac-1cfc318c47ed#48 Fri, 28 Jan 2022 16:05:03 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/monitor-profiles-no-longer-working/?ID=8ca9c3ad-8d06-4e56-b1ac-1cfc318c47ed#48 DisplayFusion Ah, thanks for that updated file. Does the error appear when manually adjusting it through the DisplayFusion Monitor Configuration window, or only when it's attached to a monitor profile?

Hello, I seem to be having the same error thrown whenever I try and move from one profile to the next or load my second profile. "An error has occurred while applying your new Monitor configuration.
Please check your settings and try again.
Error: Failed to call SetDisplayConfig. [HR: 87]
[System.Exception]" I am trying to basically have two PC monitors side by side extended as profile A and an LG C1 by itself as profile B, but while it normally works to do manually through windows settings, this profile management seems to cause the issue. I'm on 9.9 by the way and windows 10. Please help :laugh:

I'm having the same issue! Even posted a couple days ago on this topic.

I hope they'll sort it out soon! ]]> RE: Monitor profiles no longer working https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/monitor-profiles-no-longer-working/?ID=8ca9c3ad-8d06-4e56-b1ac-1cfc318c47ed#42 Thu, 13 Jan 2022 03:05:07 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/monitor-profiles-no-longer-working/?ID=8ca9c3ad-8d06-4e56-b1ac-1cfc318c47ed#42 DisplayFusion Hello, I seem to be having the same error thrown whenever I try and move from one profile to the next or load my second profile.

If you uninstall it, and then re-save those profiles, does the issue persist?

Thanks for sending those over. In the 2nd file you sent, it looks like DisplayFusion can't read your video card, which will definitely cause those errors.

What changed between the two files you sent over?

Thanks!

The first file has a error on my TV, the second one, with my second monitor (I have three : Primary (1920x1080p, 144hz), secondary (1366x768, 60hz) and TV (2560x1440, 120hz).

There's something I can do about my video card (RTX 2060 Super 8gb) ? ]]> RE: Monitor profiles no longer working https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/monitor-profiles-no-longer-working/?ID=8ca9c3ad-8d06-4e56-b1ac-1cfc318c47ed#37 Thu, 16 Dec 2021 17:10:09 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/monitor-profiles-no-longer-working/?ID=8ca9c3ad-8d06-4e56-b1ac-1cfc318c47ed#37 DisplayFusion Thanks for sending those over.

I have gotten this same issue if I change the ports on my GPU. For example if I have monitor profiles set with Displayport 1 on my GPU, then switch the monitor to DP 2 none of my monitor profiles work anymore and I get the same error as in OP.

So for some reason they seem to be tied to the port used rather than DF just detecting which port is using display with a specific EDID or something.

On this clue I set up the monitor profiles again and saved them over the old profiles. They now work correctly. I had changed one of the ports on one of the monitors.

Problem solved for now but might be worth tying the saved profiles to something dynamic. ]]> RE: Monitor profiles no longer working https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/monitor-profiles-no-longer-working/?ID=8ca9c3ad-8d06-4e56-b1ac-1cfc318c47ed#31 Tue, 12 Jan 2021 17:40:54 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/monitor-profiles-no-longer-working/?ID=8ca9c3ad-8d06-4e56-b1ac-1cfc318c47ed#31 DisplayFusion I am having the same issue as of a few days ago.
