  1. How to change display numbers.


    Got a dual monitor setup, however my main display, already set to main display, is identifying as monitor 2, causing most apps to startup on my secondary monitor. Furthermore even when turned off, my secondary monitor still identifies, meaning I can't open and use a variety of apps without turning on both monitors, something I'd prefer to not have to do always. Just wanting to know how to swap the numbers identified on the monitors, have already tried switching the connection ports to my pc, nothing seems to be working.

    :)

    I can get to the display setting where I can re-order displays:

    But is it possible to actually re-number them as well?

    The reason simply re-ordering doesn't fit my use case, is because other applications, like Skype, will use the original numbers and locations, which leads to some counterintuitive selections

    All of these threads just suggest using display settings to shuffle monitors around:

    • What application did you download for the display number?
    Meanwhile, follow these troubleshooting steps to turn on the setting of
    Notifications & actions:

    • Click the Start Menu, and then click Settings.
    • Under Settings, click System and then hit
      Notifications & actions.
