    Screen resolution changes on it's own


    I recently upgraded to Windows 11 and I was exploring settings and stuff here and there I don't remember where and what did I change but I remember doing something with "play brief video during boot" to make the boot sequence more ""flashy/animated"" I ticked on it clicked apply and restarted my pc just after that I get "just a moment" everytime before the lockscreen appears and the resolution gets changed. My screen resolution is 1366x768 and it changes to 1024x something I didn't check

    :)
