Unfortunately it appears to be anything than trivial to entirely remove SwitchResX.
Basically I followed these instructions:
How to remove SwitchResX 4.5.3
What would you do if you need to remove SwitchResX 4.5.3? simply drag and drop this app into trash? This is not enough for a thorough removal. Check out this tutorial to see how exactly to completely remove SwitchResX 4.5.3 from your Mac.uninstallmacapp.com
and
How do I restore the display settings - Apple Community
discussions.apple.com
although still no way to get your profile loaded on X299. On X99 it works despite the fact that SwitchResX is still installed.
Also your command line just returns:
2019-02-06 18:28:07.992 defaults[4415:304863]
Domain (/Library/Preferences/com.apple.windowserver) not found.
Defaults have not been changed
although there is a com.apple.windowserver.plist in /Library/Preferences/.
In system preferences, I just have these options and no choice of selecting predefined scaling icons like in your case or like in my case with the VII and X99:

What do you have in /System/Library/Displays/Contents/Resources/Overrides/DisplayVendorID-1e6d ?
When you run:
ioreg -lw0 | grep IODisplayPrefsKey
what do you get?
Also, maybe try enabling the pref instead:
sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.windowserver.plist DisplayResolutionEnabled -bool true
you need to reboot after that
