Troubleshoot external monitor connections in Windows 10

Before considering troubleshooting options, make sure your device is up to date.


Select Start > Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update , then select Check for
updates.

Tip: If you're using a wireless display adapter, connect to an HDMI port on newer TVs, then
wirelessly connect your PC to it. After connecting your wireless display adapter to your TV, go to
your Windows 10 PC and select Start > Settings > System > Display, then select Connect to a
wireless display.

Rearrange your displays


You'll see this option when Windows detects more
than one display. Each display will be numbered to
help you identify them more easily.

Identify a display
To see which number corresponds to a display,
select Start > Settings > System > Display > Rearr
ange your displays, then select Identify. A number
appears on the screen of the display it's assigned to.

Detect a display
If you connected another display and it isn't showing
in Settings,
select Start > Settings > System > Display > Rearr
ange your displays, then select Detect.

Arrange your displays


If you have multiple displays, you can change how
they're arranged. This is helpful if you want your
displays to match how they're set up in your home or
office. In Display settings, select and drag the display
to where you want. Do this with all the displays you
want to move. When you're happy with the layout,
select Apply. Test your new layout by moving your
mouse pointer across the different displays to make
sure it works like you expect.

Change display options


After you're connected to your external displays, you
can change settings like your resolution, screen
layout, and more. To see available options,
select Start > Settings > System > Display.
Change orientation
Windows will recommend an orientation for your
screen. To change it in Display settings, go to Scale
and Layout, then choose your preferred Display
orientation. If you change the orientation of a
monitor, you'll also need to physically rotate the
screen. For example, you'd rotate your external
display to use it in portrait instead of landscape.

Choose a display option


To change what shows on your displays,
press Windows logo key + P. Here's what you can
choose.

How do I determine the manufacturer of my display
