Windows 10: (FIXED) Found a solution to missing fake/ghost/virtual extended screen problem with windows...

So prior to the July (ish) update you could hit detect and then it would prompt you to try anyway if monitor is not found. now you hit detect and just nothing happens, sometimes you can get the monitor not found but no continue anyway option. I found an Odd work around. hit fn+f4 bring up the "Project" side window with the 4 second screen options pc only, duplicate, extend, second screen only.

click on the extend screen and this will turn on the second screen options in the display settings.

open the display settings then select screen two and select make this my main display.


(note: when playing with these setting you will most likely at one point or another loose the display settings window to some lost virtual second display simply hold the fn button and press the f4 3 times. this will toggle the display back to the duplicate screen option then select extend screen again switch to screen two in the screen position box and then click make this my main display again)


I was able to use this with Chrome-cast to set an extended desktop to a tv and adjust the resolution better then using an hdmi cable. had audio as well. there was a little lag but it still worked fairly well. Next step is to try setting up a VPN and Chrome-casting through that to see if I can reduce the lag.

Is there any way i can create a Fake/ghost Monitor?

In Windows 7 you could go into Control Panel, go to Appearance and Personalization, then into Screen Resolution and click Detect, after that a Fake/Ghost monitor should appear but in the latest version of windows 10 the Screen Resolution tab moved to the
Settings app, and when i click Detect in Settings it doesn't create a fake/ghost monitor. Is there any way i can create a fake/ghost monitor for free?

How to enable a fake second display in Windows 10 as Windows 8.1? Not Virtual Desktop

Thank you for assit

We say "fake" display but maybe is not the correct way to call this, anyway here is how to enable a virtual/fake display/monitor in Windows 8.1:

• Right click on the desktop, click 'Screen Resolution'
• Click 'Detect' button on the next screen (when click on Detect, a new second monitor was shown on the right of the main display)
  
• Click 'Another display not detected' and under the multiple displays option select 'Try to connect anyway on: VGA'
• Click 'Apply'

With this very easy method and a program like TeamViewer you can use them to extend your desktop to other laptop/PC/WindowsTablet... in the same wireless network but now in windows 10 is imposible to do this. What many users I know and me want is to extend
the desktop to other Windows 10 PC via wireless ad hoc, or innthe same LAN. It must to be an importand, basic and native funtion on the system but....

Now in Windows 10 when you make click on 'Detect' Button nothing happens, no other virtual display is shown, nothing. you just need to have 2 PCs, 1 with windows 8/8.1 and other with windows 10 and you will test this.

Other change, is now in Windows 10 when you go to Right click and go to Display settings, actually it goes to a "metro like" settings interface and not to the original in the control panel. Yes, I know going to 'Appearance and personalization' > 'Adjust
screen resolution'' I can go to the "classic" Display settings as in Windows 8.1

Note 1: the funtion to create a fake display in windows 10 does not work niether going through Control Panel nor Desktop> Right Click > Resolution....

Note 2: We perfectly know we can buy a monitor but this is not the problem here. What we want is to give other use to a Windows 10 device, for example turn a surface on a temporal second display to extend my laptop desktop when needed, not to mirror/show
the same, it is to extend the desktop that is a very different thing.

Thank you
