    Screen Orientation Issue


    I've got an issue with the automatic screen orientation on my laptop. It's a 2-in-1 Asus Transformerbook TP500LA. It works fine either way in landscape, but portrait mode is always reversed. That is, when I turn my laptop so that the right side is on the bottom, the screen shifts to having the left side on the bottom and vice-versa. Is there some way to go in and manually change the rotation settings? This only started once I upgraded to Windows 10, so I think it might be a driver issue.

    :)

    Screen Orientation Issues

    How do I permanantly disable the "feature" that keeps randomly changing the orientation of my screen? I can understand why this might be nice if I had a tablet, but with a laptop it is very frustrating to have the screen change in response to some unknown
    motion I am making on the touchpad, and then have to spend upwards of 10 minutes trying to get to the display screen while the mouse movements are also rotated around.

    I have tried putting the system into "laptop" mode, only to have it happen over and over again. I have looked for solutions to this problem, only to be told how to 'reset' the orientation, but never how to just make it stop happening. It shouldn't be this
    difficult to turn off a 'feature' that only serves to make life more difficult.

    There was a registry fix that can disable the Auto Rotation, I think it still works:

    Click your Start Button, type regedit and hit enter, to open the Registry Editor

    Navigate to this Key in the left pane

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\AutoRotation

    In the right pane if there is no value named SensorPresent

    Right click and create a new 32bit DWORD, name it SensorPresent

    Set its value to 0

    Restart your System
