    Dual display moving open windows to screen 1 after PC is locked


    Hi Everyone,


    After my PC got upgraded to win 10 20H2, I am facing this weird issue with displays. When I lock my Pc and come back and unlock my all the open windows from Screen 2 are moved over to screen 1 by itself and screen 1 becomes clutter.


    Sometimes I have seen windows just do not recognize my screen 2 and it just black looks like not connected to PC and it gets fixed after after I restart the PC. Again I regret updating my PC. One of the solution I was offered was to revert back to 1909 but that does not resolves the actual issue, its just a workaround.

    :)
