Hello everyone,

I am a complete novice at Power Automate and would therefore like to ask if it is at all possible to do this kind of automation.
On a daily basis I often have to use the Multiple Displays option available in Display Settings (win10) by expanding and deactivating screens as I use 3 monitors at the same time most of the time.
I wanted to create a flow that would turn off one of the 3 monitors and duplicate the other two instead of expanding them.

Is it possible to do this?

Hi @JacobJustCoding

You can do this by Power Automate Desktop (PAD).
With the help of its in-built Desktop Recorder, you can record the actions for the multiple displays Windows settings which will automatically generate the resulting line of code (actions). Make minor modifications and you are ready.

Hi @JacobJustCoding

The error in the bottom shows about the dropdown list but "Keep changes" is not a dropdown but a button.
