Windows 10: Rename monitors (\\.\DISPLAY1, \\.\DISPLAY2 etc)

Is it possible for me to swap monitor names so that, for example, \\.\DISPLAY1 becomes \\.\DISPLAY2 and \\.\DISPLAY2 becomes \\.\DISPLAY1?

How to change display index in win10

How does MS enumerate the displays? I need to modify the current index number of displays.

Is that possible to modify the connectors arrangement in VBIOS and change the OS's enumeration? Does driver play a role in this case?

Current connection matrix:

Connector #







1 (left)

DP1

DDI1

Display2

2 (middle)

DP2

DDI2

Display3

3 (right)

DP0

DDI3

Display1



There right assignment must be

Connector #



1 (left)

Display1

2 (middle)

Display2

3 (right)

Display3

Thanks in advance.

 

Erratic, inconsistent taskbar behavior

Setup:

fresh install W10 Pro 64, latest updates and drivers

two monitors, extended, taskbar only on display1, no taskbar autohide

display1 has borderless windowed fullscreen program - app1 and a maximized windowed program - app3

display2 has normal windowed program - app2

app1 has focus, taskbar is hidden

Procedure1:

alt tab from app1 into app2 or click on app2 on display2

Expected behaviour:

focus on app2 and show the taskbar

Actual behaviour:

focus on app2, taskbar stays hidden

Procedure2:

click on desktop on display2

Expected behaviour:

show the taskbar on display1, focus on desktop

Actual behaviour:

taskbar stays hidden, focus on desktop

Procedure3 (only sometimes, often with longer clicks or when doing it repeatedly):

hit Start key, then left or right click in either app1 or app2

Expected behaviour:

show taskbar then either focus on app1, hide the taskbar or focus on app2, taskbar stays on

Actual behaviour:

show taskbar then focus on app clicked, taskbar still shown even if clicking in app1

Procedure4:

hit Start key, then right click the taskbar icon of app3 on display1, switch to app3, click in app3, click in app3 again

Expected behaviour:

app3 is on top and in focus, taskbar stays shown

Actual behaviour:

app3 is in focus, taskbar disappears and is covered by app1

Is this normal behaviour in W10? It certainly isnt in W7.

As it is right now programs on other displays are treated differently than the ones on the main one. This should not be the case when using a single taskbar on the main display. Previous versions of Windows made it absolutely clear how the taskbar should function
and has for over 2 decades. W10 has had nothing but problems with the taskbar. Fix the code and give us options. In general W10 lacks options, especially for annoyances such as

sticky corners.

 

Swap the cables out back?

Actual 'Renaming' them or the 'Identity' of them:

This?:





as opposed to this?:

 

Not reasonable. HDMI and VGA require adapters to swap.

 

I was afraid of that! *Sad
