  2. Screen Extend on 2 laptops not working

    Hi, I recently tried extending my current laptop screen to the 2nd laptop using "Project this PC" option on Windows 10. -I watched several tutorials from YouTube but still didn't work. -It seems the laptops discovery mode on the both Laptops was failing. -I rebooted the laptops and toggled the settings in display property, pressing Windows + P to bring the extend Screen options and this is the step where both PCs were failing to get discovered. -Both laptops are using Windows 10. Same Wifi internet. -I also installed separate App from Asus called "GlideX" which is specifically designed to share/extend screens on Asus or any other laptop/ mobile device but that also failed. -In project this PC at display setting there is option to screen share if "pc is plugged in" I unchecked that also but still not available. After taking extensive steps now I am looking forward to get feedback from professionals?

    Dual portrait extended touch screens in windows 10

    Hi, Steven.

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community, I understand your concern and we will try to assist you the best way we can.

    As per your query, I understand that you are unable to connect your extended monitors.

    I would suggest that you perform the methods below and check if you can configure the external displays singularly.

    • On the search bar type Tablet PC Settings.
    • In the Tablet PC Settings dialog box, choose the Display you want to configure.
    • Click Setup.
    • Follow the on-screen instructions.
    • Repeat steps 4-6 for each additional touchscreen display.
    Also to find Pen and Touch Input settings, you can type it in the search bar and check if you can find the option there.



    Hope this information helps
