HOW TO SETUP THREE DISPLAY SWITCHING WITH WINDOWS 10 64-BIT.

** - HOW TO SETUP THREE DISPLAY SWITCHING WITH WINDOWS 10 64-BIT.

[Note:  I haven't yet looked for a way to display the desktop (unextended) on 3 screens at once.

Until then, it isn't presented as an option.  (Also, I don't need to!)]

I made it easier to switch games on, back and forth to a TV.

It's normally one click to switch to Game mode, and two clicks to switch back.

Here's the awesome app you need:

Monitor Profile Switcher

https://sourceforge.net/projects/monitorswitcher/

Unzip the files into a folder on C:, then put a Shortcut for MonitorSwitcherGUI.exe in:

C:Users [*YOUR USER NAME*] AppDataRoamingMicrosoftWindowsStart MenuProgramsStartup

[IMPORTANT:

With three screens, you must *TWO-STEP*, some display setup changes.

If a setting doesn't work, that is what is needed to fix it.

Break it down into Steps.  Then manually do, whatever it is, that the switching app can't.

Like this....]

I made it easier to switch games on, back and forth to a TV.

It's *normally* one click to switch to Game mode, and two clicks to switch back.

With one exception.

If, the computer is *booted-up* in Game mode, instead of (regular) Main mode:

Then, the *first time* you switch from Game mode to Main mode, you have to click step 1-B [See below.] (1-A won't do anything) and *Manually set Display Settings to Duplicate screens 1 & 2*, before clicking step 2.

After that, (if needed,) from then on....

It's *always* one click to switch to Game mode, and two clicks to switch back.

The switching app can't do the switch to Main mode in one click.

Two works fine!

My "Main" mode arrangement.  Extended is on the TV.

One-click to switch....

"Game" mode!  Extended is swapped to the center screen.

Switch to "Main" mode, Step 1:

Result:

Switch to "Main" mode, Step 2:

Back to "Main" mode!

The 1-B shortcuts, set 1 (or 2, (b,)) to Primary, and turn-off 3.
