The past participle of résoudre is résolu, and the regular ending -é does not apply to this irregular verb.
The subjunctive of résoudre is built on the stem résolv-, so the third-person forms take résolve rather than the indicative stem.
A bare present-tense fragment showing the irregular first-person form, with the stem dropping the v in the singular.
A past-participle fragment showing the form used for a settled problem, ready to be attached to an object.
The compound form uses the auxiliary avoir and the participle résolu for a settled dispute.
The subjunctive trigger il faut que produces the subjunctive form résolvions, with the stem keeping the v.

The future stem of résoudre is résoudr-, which drops the e of the infinitive before the future endings.
In the pronominal construction se résoudre à, the participle agrees with the subject, so the feminine form takes a final e.
Résous belongs to the rare dissolve sense, while a question or a problem is settled with the participle résolu.
The negative form of se résoudre à expresses reluctance to accept a situation.
The passive construction places the settled outcome in focus and mentions the agent with par.
The future perfect places the resolution before a future deadline, and the participle remains invariable with avoir.
