    How to Prevent Windows from Re-arranging when Displayport Monitor goes to sleep? (Multi...


    For anyone who has multiple monitors and display port this has probably driven you crazy at some point. But when your computer sleeps / monitor "turns off", windows thinks you have removed it, so will re-arrange all windows on it to other monitors. Same when you wake, it will think that its a new monitor and will re-order / arrange your other monitors.

    There are many posts about this on stackoverflow and other places, but I have yet to find a solution that works for Windows 10. Anyone out there have a solution?

  3. DisplayPort second monitor disconnects when it sleeps

    I have 2 monitors, an HDMI and a DisplayPort. It seems that, by design, the DisplayPort disconnects when it sleeps. This causes all of the open windows on that monitor move to the HDMI monitor (because the DP monitor no longer exists). The only solution
    is to not put the monitors to sleep.

    Is there any preferred setting for keeping a monitor on 24/7/365? Should I put up a black screen saver? If not what can I do to not burn out my monitors by having them on. I also don't want them bright all night long.

    2 new HP PCs

    2 Acer ET322QU monitors on each

    1 HDMI - 1 DisplayPort

    DisplayPort second monitor disconnects when it sleeps

    Greg, please!

    As I stated, this is a DisplayPort disfunction. It is not a sleep issue. A DisplayPort disconnects when it sleeps. Windows thinks that the monitor is disconnected. When it wakes up, it thinks it is a new monitor. This is very well documented. I did not ask
    for any help on that. I have spent days working with support from the video card and the monitor companies.

    I ended up with a condescending 'Independent Advisor' with a God complex who insists on insulting me. I was very pleasant until you said 'Tony, I have no idea what you've tried if you don't tell me, so invested over
    an hour researching fixes that you now say you've tried.' Again, it had nothing to do with my request.

    I would suggest that you reread this conversation.

    You have called me uncooperative, cantankerous, and unfriendly. Because of this mistreatment I have reported you as abusive.
