Windows 10: Two screen with different sizes, but I cannot change the resolution for each screen.

I have my laptop in a docking station closed, where two monitors are setup different sizes. Earlier the two screen have had different resolution, but for some reason it has changed, so that it is the same resolution on both. In the setting the monitor are shown as the same size. When both monitor are on the resulotion is 1920*1080. When only the larger monitor is on it is 3440*1440.I cannot change the resolution when both are on. How can it control the resolution on the larger monitor, when both are on?
