> At work, I use a single monitor with Windows 10 to avoid a few bugs and annoyances, such as one monitor not returning when unlocking the desktop, or having to rearrange all my windows onto the multiple screens when docking the laptop, or sometimes just when returning from a break.
I use Windows 7 and Windows 10 laptops that I dock with 2x 1080p monitors at home and the office. Both laptops remember the 4 displays uniquely and arrange things accordingly.
- FungalRaincloud 10y agoMy work laptop will forget my window arrangement maybe once per week, maybe less than that. I mean, it restarts at least once a week and forgets everything, but there's nothing I can really do about that, so I don't fault the system for that. However, my home laptop forgets window layouts constantly - basically every other time I unlock it. I don't know what's different between the two setups, and I've never bothered to spend any time trying to 'fix' it, but windows is kind of inconsistent on how it behaves. Windows 10 definitely makes multimonitors much better, though.
