Windows 10: Automatic rotation missing after 24H2

I recently updated my Surface Book 2 to 24H2 and for some reason I cannot automatically rotate my display anymore which for a PC in tablet mode is .... questionable .... Instead, I may now choose a fixed rotation from a drop down menu under settings->system->display->scale&layout. Am I just incapable of finding the setting tried to search for "rotate" and similar keywords aswell, or was this feature actually removed by microsoft??

automatic screen rotation

Hi Michael,

Are you using a 2-in-1 device like the Surface Pro, accessories, such as a detachable keyboard or dock? If so, this can cause screen rotation problems.

To check if an accessory is causing rotation problems, do the following:

• Disconnect the keyboard, dock, or external display.
• Change the orientation of the device to see if it rotates automatically.

Also, if you're running a Surface device, I suggest that you run the
Sensors Troubleshooter to scan for problems and fix them automatically. In the
File Download dialog box, select Open, and follow the prompts.

Let us know how it goes.

 

automatically rotate

Hi,

Apologize for the delay in response.

I would suggest you check the settings in your tablet since by default the auto rotate is set to
Off. The steps may differ, however, try these steps and check if you can change the settings.

To go to Action center, swipe from the right side of the screen and find the option
Rotation Lock. Change it from On
to Off.

Hope this helps. Please respond if you have further related queries.
