I changed my screen resolution on my Ubuntu vm.
After reboot the OS is hang on a dialog saying
COULD NOT LOAD STORED CONFIGURATION FOR MONITORS
I've read through forums and found a solution that helped others, removing or renaming ~/.config/xorg.conf
file, but I can't seem to edit the file as I have booted in safe mode.

rm $HOME/.config/monitors.xml
should reset the display settings to default. See How do I get rid of this monitor error?.

I do not find monitors.xml in my config folder ,, is there a possibility the monitors.xml file lives somewhere else ?
