    How to get windows 10 to pick up a new monitor


    I've got an hdmi switch with my PC as the input and my TV and my monitor as the output. My TV is 4k so it's resolution always seems to be picked up when switching betwenn my monitor and my TV when the PC is on, but often it is defaulting to 30Hz, so when I switch back to my monitor it just reads out of range as it only displays at 60Hz it seems.

    My monitor's aspect ratio is also 21:9 rather than 16:9, and when switching from the TV to the monitor it won't display in 2560x1080 as it still displays in 16:9

    I'm wondering if there is a way to possibly uninstall and re-install the drivers using powershell or a cmd script, as I can uninstall the driver just fine but not re-install with the monitor not displaying(haven't tried it just guessing there). This way it picks up it's a different display and changes the resolution poperly. Althought if anyone has any better ideas I'm open to it!

    On windows 10 pro 1709

    Thanks

    :)

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK
