    Windows 10 display issues


    I am having the following problem on a Windows 10 Surface Book 2 using the Surface Dock 2 with all the latest drivers and Windows updates.


    When working from home I have two LG 4k monitors connected and the lid to the Surface Book 2 closed. One monitor is connected via HDMI and the other via Display Port. I have the settings configured to do nothing when the screen is closed.


    Recently I have noted after a reboot the Surface Book screen is enabled 3 screens show up in Display Settings and I can drag things onto the closed display. If I open and close the screen Display Settings go back to the 2 external screens and the Surface Book screen is disabled again. This does not occur if the computer goes to sleep, only on reboot.


    I have looked through power profiles and other settings and can't seem to find anything that would be causing this behavior. Anyone have any ideas?

    :)

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK
