I recently updated to Windows 11. I have a LG 34 inch ultrawide monitor (21:9 aspect ratio, 2560x1080 resolution). Windows 11 selects the generic Pnp monitor driver, which has a max 1920x1080 resolution, so the screen is fuzzy and stretched out - really unusable. LG does not have an updated driver, Windows 11 has all updates installed has no updates available related to this driver and it will only select this as the recommended resolution.

Is there no support for 2560x1080 HDMI monitors in windows 11?

    It is clear that this issue isn't exclusive of a few users. Also, as an experienced user, I doubt this is a LG driver problem (Windows 10 worked 2560x1080 without installing driver). Nobody from Microsoft can help with this ?

    Same problem here with LG 29UM69G on Windows 11, all updates installed.

    Installed the driver from LG website successfully, still no support for ultrawide resolutions.

    Good luck with going back. I have spent 2 days trying to get my unsupported LG 2560x1080 to work with Windows 11. The chat even entered my computer without success. Going back is no longer available after 10 days. Until LG updates their graphic driver to work with Windows 11 we're hooped. I wish I hadn't moved forward and had stayed with 10.
