Changed external monitors thru KVM setup, mac is still stuck on the profile for old (less good) monitor, won't show full range of resolutions

I have a 2018 Macbook Pro

I recently bought a KVM switch and set it up so I can switch between my personal and work computers (stuck working from home)

I bought an ACER K202HQL monitor and realized it only had 1366 x 768 resolution -- it looked like crap

So I switched to an ASUS VE228H which supports 1920x1080

It already looks a lot better, however my Mac is still stuck on calling it the K202HQL and offering no better than 1366 x 768 resolution.


I followed advice about removing the profiles from Display settings, also from colorsync utility, rebooted several times, and it still keeps popping up.

any idea how to get rid of this thing?

It shows as a device under ColorSync even though I thought I killed all the profiles for it.

MacBook Pro 15”, macOS 10.15
