Windows 10: Second monitor not detected but working

My PC was restored after a crash. While both monitors work, settings says it can't detect a second monitor. I can change the order of the monitors so that the main can be used for what I'm working on. However, the mouse action goes out the right side of the monitor and over to the send monitor which is to my left. Currently my main monitor is listed as #1 in "Rearrange your displays" but when I click on Identify, the number comes up listed as #2. When I click "detect", it says no other monitor detected. I really need to talk with someone about this.

Second monitor not detected

Hello,

May we know if you've already tried the suggestion provided by Robert Aldwinckle on forums on this

thread?

If Windows can't detect your second monitor, it's usually a driver problem. It could be due to your video driver being outdated, incorrect or faulty. It's also possible that your monitor driver is causing the problem.

Since the issue occurred after the latest update, it's possible that the video or monitor drivers require an update. Try looking for the updated version of the drivers on the device manufacturer's website and follow their instructions.

If the issue persists, try to roll back the drivers to the last good configuration. To do that, you may follow these steps:

• Right-click the Start button and select Device Manager.
• Right-click your device driver, select Properties, and browse to the
  Driver tab.
• Press the Roll Back Driver option if available, and Windows 10 will begin the process.

Let us know how it turns out.
