How to Change your Display Settings - Arrange Multiple Monitors

When connected to multiple displays, you can adjust the settings for each using the below steps.

Identify a display

First, to see which number corresponds to a display, select Start  > Settings  > System > Display > Rearrange your displays, then select Identify. A number appears on the screen of the display it's assigned to.

Detect a display

If you connected another display and it isn't showing in Settings, select Start  > Settings  > System > Display > Rearrange your displays, then select Detect

Arrange your displays

If you have multiple displays, you can change how they're arranged. This is helpful if you want your displays to match how they're set up in your home or office. In Display settings, select and drag the display to where you want. Do this with all the displays you want to move. When you're happy with the layout, select Apply. Test your new layout by moving your mouse pointer across the different displays to make sure it works like you expect. 

Change display options

After you're connected to your external displays, you can change settings like your scale(zoom), screen layout, and more. To see available options, select Start  > Settings  > System > Display

Change orientation

Windows will recommend an orientation for your screen. To change it in Display settings, go to Scale and Layout, then choose your preferred Display orientation. If you change the orientation of a monitor, you'll also need to physically rotate the screen. For example, you'd rotate your external display to use it in portrait instead of landscape. 

Choose a display option

To change what shows on your displays, press Windows logo key  + P. Here's what you can choose.
