Table of contents:
Microsoft has fixed a bug present in Windows 10 that caused, when connecting external monitors, open application windows to be automatically rearranged , even switching between the connected monitors and they did it on their own when spending a certain time without using them.
A bug that has caused more than one headache when seeing how the application windows that were open on the desktop had been organized on their ownwithout the user having anything to do with it.A true puzzle that already has a solution.
Windows that organize themselves
When connecting the PC to an external display, regardless of whether it is a laptop or a desktop computer, some users were experiencing an unpleasant problem after several hours without using the equipment. The windows had changed position and had even changed their place on the monitors
A fact that requires double work, because the solution is to reorganize, now yes, by hand, once again the windows insurgents. A waste of time that has a negative influence, especially when we are working.
The problem that Michelle Xiong, Program Manager at Microsoft Graphics Team has called Rapid Hot Plug Detect (Rapid HPD), has a solution.If you use multi-monitor configurations through a DisplayPort connection you can now try how to correct this error"
Microsoft has released a feature that is now available in Windows Insider Preview via build 21287 or later For To be able to prove that it works, you only need to have an external monitor connected via DisplayPort. If it is a desktop computer, at least two external monitors are required and in the case of laptops, just one external monitor is enough.
Since they are versions of Windows 10 available in the development channels, they may contain bugs and errors, so you can make suggestions or comment on any incident that you notice using the Feedback Hub tool and in the case of problems with the display by looking for the option Display and graphics and then the section Multiple displays"
It is hoped that if everything works correctly, this function will end up making the leap to the general builds of Windows 10 and thus it can be used by other users. If you want to check which version of Windows you're using, you can follow these steps:
-
"
- Enter menu Settings." "
- Enter section System." "
- Click on the tab About." "
- The build number is located under Windows Specifications and then under Operating System Build ."
