Windows 10: Extended Display Issue

I have a Windows 11 PC. It was working fine with an extended display but recently the extended display randomly turns on and off. When I turn on the extended display it stays like that for 5-10 secs then asks for the changes to be saved or not. There seems to be no fix, I tried restarting the PC but to no avail.

We would like to know more information from your end to know what is the next possible step that we can offer for you to resolve your issue.

• Were you able to get an audio on your extended display before? Or is this the first time that you will set up an extended display with your computer?
• Aside from the HDMI cable, have you tried using VGA cable instead to connect to your extended display?
• Can you verify if you have any audio on your speakers if you are not connected to the extended display?

We look forward to your reply.

Is your computer’s Operating System updated?

How about your Audio drivers, can you check if it is updated and can support HDMI audio output?

If your answer to those questions are yes, then you can check these steps to setup audio for your extended display:

• Connect your laptop to the extended display using the HDMI cable.
• On the lower right side of your task bar, right click on the Audio icon.
• Select Playback device
• If you don’t see your extended display (T.V) you can right click on a blank space on the Playback tab and select Show Disabled Devices and Show Disconnected Devices.
• One your extended display (T.V) is showing, please check if it is enable.
• Then Select OK.

Do a test and check if the audio is now playing on the extended display, if issue still persists, try to restart your computer without removing the HDMI for both devices.

Let us know how it goes.

 

Icons appearing on extended display instead of main display | Windows 11 v22H2

Hello everyone,

One of our user is facing issue with display settings. All of his icons are appearing on extended display.

1. We checked the display properties and set the extended display as main display and rolled back.
   
2. Cleared the iconcache (IconCache.db) under the folder AppData.
   
3. Disabled the Auto arrange icons and enabled it back again,
   
4. All the drivers along with BIOS are up to date on the system.
   

Still the issue is not getting resolved.
Don't want to move the icons manually and leave one item behing.
Please suggest any permanent fix for this issue.

Thanks,
Pramod.
