  1. display settings window disappears when trying to change display settings


    Hello and good day,


    I have a staff's surface pro that is used daily. Today when I tried to change the display settings, the display window loads up and immediately disappears. All I was trying to do for my staff is to change the multiple screen option. But we could not do this.


    Is this bug related to a latest windows update? Please can someone help?



    Many thanks,


    Adrin.

    :)
