Second monitor is zoomed in, scaling grayed out

One of my employees is having issues with a second monitor that is zoomed in and scaling for that monitor in Display Settings is disabled. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the graphics card, tried resetting the resolution on the second monitor, tried changing the screen refresh rate to 59Hz, installed all pending updates, had the employee unplug the monitor, restart her computer, then plug the monitor back in and I also had the employee check her physical monitor settings.

We looked for checkpoints on the computer but there are none. The employee informed me that before the monitor zoomed in, she simply shut down her computer and when she booted it back up, the monitor was zoomed in so much she is unable to use it.

I have attempted every troubleshooting step I can think of and I am unable to resolve the issue. My main concern is that scaling is disabled in Display Settings. If I could find a way to enable scaling, I think I could resolve the issue.

 

Issues while installing a second monitor in Windows 10

Really? I get a canned answer and nothing else? I posted that I had tried everything that I could find posted online. I did read the post that Andre suggested multiple times prior to posting this request for help. None of it helped.

My computer does not recognize that there is a second monitor is plugged in. The small step of changing the settings so I can put stuff on the second monitor ISN'T the issue. I am not that dumb. in the device manager there is only the single monitor listed
at one point there was a unknown device listed but my computer did not know if it was a monitor or a printer.

There has to be someone out there that knows how to fix this

Please Help

 

Second monitor screen resolution problem

Hi,

For us to properly isolate the issue with your second monitor screen resolution, we would like to know the following:

• 
  Were there any changes made on your computer prior to the issue (e.g., updates, software installation)?
  
• 
  When did the issue first begin?
  
• 
  To make sure that we have not missed on anything, what troubleshooting steps have you done so far?
  

In the meantime, we suggest that you try resetting your monitor settings, and check if the issue still persists. You may refer to your monitor on how to reset it.

We look forward to your response.
