External monitor off does not recognize the resolution

Good evening everyone, I installed your RDM app on MacBook 16, while setting the various resolutions, with the laptop screen closed (clamshell) the screen went black and no longer found the correct resolution. I was no longer able to set it from the Mac's screen settings because it seems that RDM does not update the settings.

In dual display mode it works and sets the various resolutions of the two screens, but I can no longer use only the external screen with the lid of the Macbook closed.

How do I fix this problem? Is there any way to delete some external monitor configuration file created by RDM.

sorry for the English language

Thanks

One way I fixed this was to use another Mac to remote into the Mac having external monitor issues. Then configure RDM to set the monitor back to a compatible resolution. I think you can also use VNC if you have anything other than a Mac (e.g. windows or linux machine). You need to enable remote desktop on the machine having issues.
