    Text on one of my two identical monitors is not clear - can't figure out why!


    I bought a new monitor for my desktop, which I had to connect using a DisplayPort cable. The monitor works fine and text was clear on it. I bought another of the same monitors, which I have now connected with an HDMI cable. For some reason, the second monitor that is connected via HDMI has clear text while the first monitor I was using now has jagged text. I have tried running through the ClearType wizard a few times but it hasn't made any noticeable difference. Any other suggestions on how I can fix this?

    I'm running the May 2020 update with an Nvidia RTX 2070.

    Clear Pagefile on Shutdown


    I've been looking into clearing the pagefile, and I found the following steps at a somewhat dated webpage:
    1. In the registry editor, navigate to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management
    2. Set ClearPageFileAtShutdown to the REG_DWORD value of 1.
    3. Restart Windows.
    I'm just wondering whether those steps are still valid, and, if so, does clearing the pagefile work as advertised?

    How to change the monitor identities?

    Switch the cables, if possible.

    How to change the monitor identities?

    As the title says, I want to know how can I change my monitor's identities? I want the big monitor to be the number 1, and the small one to be number 2, if I made myself clear enough. Is there a way to do this?
