    How to stop automatic duplicate/extend displays


    Hello all! I'm using my Windows 10 laptop with a secondary external monitor which i want to use as a display, without the laptop's built-in display. The problem is, despite i set to show the image only on the secondary (external) monitor, after each restart or after i close the laptop's lid, it reverts to duplicating the image (or extends it, if select extend inside of duplicate). How can i stop this?? I have to manually reselect to show the image on the 2nd display only. Thanks!

    No duplicate option for multiple displays.

    I do not have the option of duplicating a display for multiple displays. I can extend and designate my desktop to either display but not both at the same time. Why is this and how can I duplicate?

    Thanks,

    Steve

    Can't Duplicate Display in Windows 10

    Windows 10 had automatic update; afterwards, I could not view my TV (connected with HDMI) cable. I could hear sound on TV and see Desktop Background; but no icons. Can't successfully duplicate display. Seems Extended Display is default.
