Windows 10: Any software to create a virtual display monitor device?

I need a virtual monitor device for my laptop so that I can use Chrome Remote Desktop properly when the laptop's lid is closed. Now if the lid is closed the Intel Graphic Driver won‘t detect any screen and many program windows won't be rendered properly .

Surface Book 2 Won't Create Virtual Display Monitor?

On another laptop i have i am able to press win+p and select extend and the system creates a "virtual" second monitor even though there is not one physically connected. I am then able to use powerpoint in the presenter mode and with a program called AirParrot
wirelessly project the slide view to an Apple TV device while the presenter view is on the laptop. The Surface will not create this "virtual" monitor. I've read all kinds of articles on this subject of "ghost" monitors that suggest creating cables with resistors
to fool the hardware into thinking there is a second monitor attached, and short of doing that I've tried everything else suggested. I"ve updated everything that is available as far as I know. Is this a limitation or have i missed something? Thanks

virtual desktop as multiple monitor

Hello Dan,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

Virtual desktops lets you create multiple, separate desktops that each can display different open windows and apps. Multiple desktops are great for quickly switching desktops. The idea of having multiple virtual desktops is being able to order programs
according to a set of tasks.

PC can’t have different virtual desktop on each monitor. However, we can
configure the taskbar for multiple displays to send windows from one monitor to another. We can customize Windows to have a taskbar shown on only one display, and a different taskbar on the other display. To do that, follow the below mentioned
steps.

• Right click on the taskbar and select
  Taskbar Settings.
  
• Scroll down to Multiple displays section and choose
  Taskbar where window is open under Show taskbar buttons on option.
  

By choosing that particular option in Settings, you can set its independent taskbar in addition to your primary display. Only the open windows are shown on the taskbar in that particular display.

As a workaround, we can create a new profile to switch your main display to another. By doing that, you can switch between profiles which will be having different displays in it.
To do that, follow the below mentioned steps.

• Right click anywhere on the desktop and select Graphics properties > Select
  Display > make changes to change your main displays > click on
  Save profile > assign a name to it.
  
• You can create multiple profiles to make different monitors as main displays each time.
  
• To apply the profile, right click anywhere on the
  desktop and select Graphics Options > Profiles > in there you can select the new account which you have created to switch the display.
  

Hope it helps.
