MacOS 11 M1 DisplayLinkManager Crashes and System logs out user

UPDATE: ROSOLVED

When I first installed DisplayLinkManager everthing worked fine (Dell 1440p Monitor HDMI), then I rotated the display in Settings. The Image freezes as from another forum user.

I know read that M1 BigSur Screen Rotation is not supported right now, which is fine.

But now Display Manager Crashes and my user gets logged out of BigSur everytime I start DisplayLInkManager with Monitor attached.

Reinstalling the app didnt resolve the issue.

any suggestions? Like clean delete macos display settings or similar could help?

UPDATE:

Deleting window server plists files resolved the isssue:

/Library/Preferences/com.apple.windowserver.plist (sudo rm ...),
~/Library/Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.windowserver.blah-blah-blah.plist
