  1. Auto rotate on my Microsoft Surface GO 2 is mirrored


    As the title suggests. The only way to use the laptop in portrait mode is to lock the rotation once I've got the screen in the direction I want. I've got two of the same driver HID sensor collection V2 in the sensors folder, after disabling and updating both of them one at a time and then together, only one of them seems to do anything and still the screen rotates the opposite way around. The second one when enabled while the other is disabled doesn't allow any rotation at all, correct way around or incorrect. I've tried restarting. It's been an ongoing issue through many updates of windows,

  2. Surface Book - Windows 10 : Auto screen rotation missing

    Hello -

    I also had this same problem (locked in landscape mode, no Rotate Lock/Unlock button, Surface wouldn't auto-rotate). Multiple restarts alone (with or without the keyboard) did not fix it. I was able to restore the Rotation Lock icon (and auto-rotate) with
    the following steps:

    • Remove the surface keyboard (while on)
    • Manually set the display to portrait (Settings --> System --> Display --> Orientaton (portrait)
    • Restarted the Surface
    After my device restarted, the Rotation Lock icon was back and my Surface would auto-rotate again.

    This has only happened to me once and this was the only fix that worked for me (other options mentioned in the forums didn't work). I hope that helps!

    Hello,

    Let us isolate your concern by answering the questions below:

    • What is the make and model of your device?

    In the meantime, we suggest that you check the Screen Resolution display to check if there is a setting to allow the screen to auto-rotate. Here are the steps:

    • Go to Control Panel.
    • Search for Display and then click Change display settings.
    • Mark the checkbox beside Allow the screen to auto-rotate option if possible.
    • Click Apply and then OK.
    We are looking forward to your response.

    there is no option for auto rotation in windows 10 10586

    Hi Faizan,

    Thank you for responding.

    Do let us know the make and model of your device?

    Try the below troubleshooting steps and check if it helps.

    Step 1: Remove all the external devices connected to your Tablet., check for the auto-rotate option.

    Step 2: Check the auto-rotation setting.

    • Swipe in from the right edge of the screen and tap Settings. (If you're using a mouse, point to the top-right corner of the screen, move the mouse pointer down and click
      Settings.)
    • Tap or click Screen, and tap or click the screen icon above the brightness slider to unlock auto-rotation.
    Note: The screen icon includes a padlock when auto-rotation is locked. When auto-rotation is locked, the screen won’t rotate when you change the orientation of Surface.

    Hope it helps. Reply to the post with an updated status of this issue for further assistance.
