Hello,
It is possible to change the screen resolution easily in Powershell on Windows servers (with or without GUI).
This can be interesting on a core Windows server.
# Import the servercore module.Import-Module -name servercore# Note: the servercore module is natively available on a Windows server.
# Display the current screen resolutionGet-DisplayResolution
# Change screen resolution on Windows serverSet-DisplayResolution -Width 1280 -Height 1024 -Force# -force suppresses the confirmation request# Note: The cmdlet runs setres.exe -W 1280 -H 1024 -F in the background.I tried copying setres.exe and the servercore module to a Windows 10 but with no conclusive results.
For a Windows client you can try following this article :
