- Control Panel> Appearance and Personalization> Display> Change display settings (Or simply right click on Desktop > Screen resolution)
Using key combination Windows + P brings to the fore on Desktop un Quick Menu options (which can be accessed from Control Panel> Display> Connect to a projector), namely Computer only (Using only the primary monitor) Duplicate (displays the same desktop on both monitors), Extend (expand desktopon the two connected monitors) and Projector only (uses only the secondary monitor), from which you can select the most convenient version for you (usually when you connect a second monitor to a laptop, it is automatically selected by Windows Duplicate option).
The second method is to configure multiple monitors in Screen resolution. 1 and 2 numbers displayed on the monitors will help you make the distinction between primary monitor and the secondary when you want to change settings for them (well, you can click the button Identify to ensure that they are displayed correctly).
