I recently installed SwitchRes X on my MacBook air (using macOS Big Sur, not M1), and it was going fine until I created a custom sized display and used it, and then my screen went black. I tried to fix it, but nothing worked but plugging it into an external monitor, which actually made the laptop screen work too. I deleted SwitchRes X from my computer, but when i unplugged the HDMI cable my laptop screen went black again. can anybody help? I use this computer for school and my parents won't let me keep on using the kitchen (that's where the monitor is) or the adapter (my Dad's, my laptop only has USB-C ports). A log of what happens when the HDMI display is disconnected and reconnected is attached.
