I notice that in the XML profiles it does mention the refresh rate but when I go to single monitor, it doesn't change it to 144Hz. Could you please add so that it changes refresh rate automatically?
Great work otherwise:)

I just did a quick check and it seems to be loading the refresh rates from the xml files properly, it's also passing them along to the WinApi function - so it should be changing them. Anyone else who noticed problems with refresh rates not changing?

I have a strange problem with the refresh rate as well. I have set up a profile, so that it switches to my tv at 1280x720 at 60 Hz resolution. The profile's xml looks correct, but when it gets loaded, he switches to 1920x1080 at 60 Hz. I have to use another app, Hotkey Resolution Changer, to change resolution to 720p. This could be related to my hdmi -> lan adapter, which connects my tv in living room to pc in office, but it is strange though.

This problem exists for me. I'll try to put as much info about my setup as possible:
New TV: Vizio P65-F1 that I want to do both 1080p@120Hz and 4K@60Hz
Monitor 1: Asus 2K Monitor@144Hz
Monitor 2: Dell 1920x1200@60Hz
I want three profiles:
1) Just the two regular Monitors (144Hz and 60Hz respectively)
2) The TV at 1080p@120z, plus both Monitors as above.
3) The TV alone at 4K@60Hz (turn off the monitors)
What I find is that the two monitors remember their refresh rates, but if I switch to option 2 above (1080p@120Hz TV) after having either of the other two options on, I see it change the TV resolution to "4k x 2k, 1920 x 1080" with a refresh rate of 30Hz.
This is shown in the nVidia Control Panel, not in the Windows Display settings. Windows Display settings seems to only see "1920x1080" and not the actual modes listed in nVidia's control panel, where it differenciates between "4k x 2k, 1920 x 1080" and "1080p, 1920 x 1080" , so my guess is that this application just changes to whatever Windows Display Properties thinks is the only 1920x1080 option, and chooses this mode instead of the one I want.
It would be wonderful if this app somehow delve into the different resolution options for this display adapter and save this off, because other than this refresh rate issue, this application would be perfect for my needs!

The problem is that the tool is using windows API for saving and restoring the settingss and can thus only restore those settings which are accessible with windows tools. The only chance I see is that you somehow teach the windows display settings those missing modes, maybe by installing better drivers for the TV?

Ok, I just saw that this is an old thread, but my problem does exist :)
