    Multitasking/Virtual Desktops on Dual Monitors

    Hi,

    Great question.

    Virtual desktop can only work on your one monitor, the another monitor is just extension of your first monitor. Another option is to use

    Hyper-V
    on other monitor.

    Regarding on your idea you can raise it through the Windows Feedback App. You can post your suggestions or ideas that can help us improve the service that we provide.

    How to find Windows Feedback app:

    • Press Windows key+ Q, and type Feedback.
    • Select Windows Feedback and sign in using your Microsoft Account.

    Hope it helps.

    Regards.

    Windows 11 Laptop not able to detect External Monitor LG24GN650

    I am not able to detect my external monitor on windows 11 specifically. There is no physical connection issue as the monitor works when I connect it to another device operating on windows 10. There is also not any issue with my Windows 11 laptop's HDMI port as it works on other displays as well. It means the issue is specifically with the LG driver.

    I have tried the following methods to solve the issue but was unsuccessful:

    1. Updated intel and nvidia graphics driver
    2. Updated Windows 11
    3. Updated display driver from Device manager

    As the monitor was not able to auto-detect I tried running the monitor driver exe file but it was showing error "Monitor is not LG manufactured"

    1. turn off laptop monitor?
    2. locate feedback hub on Cortana?
    My workaround is to use PowerPoint Screen Recorder but this need additional screen capture.

    The reason for Screen Recorder is Windows 10 Mouse Cursor for Office Menu item disappear when select Screen Capture App. It is cumbersome to show Tech Support what is selected on Office App on captured screen...
