Am I the only one here who never has his Windows laptops reconnect to external displays in the orientation and arrangement he tells it?
For 20+y, I've never had external monitors reliably stay where I tell them with Windows (every version of Windows I've had issues with: 2k, XP, 2k3, 7, 2k8, 2k12, 10 (didn't own/use ME, Vista, or 8/8.1)
Yet when I connect external monitors to my Macs, they always stay in the place and orientation I tell them (I do travel (until just before covid (haven't been onsite since Aug '19)) consulting, and would routinely use customer external monitor setups with my MacBooks ... eg - while connecting to a rotatable monitor with one MBP, it would always remember that monitor in portrait mode, while I could connect to another monitor in landscape, and it'd remember that monitor that way)
Compare that to the customer-issued laptop with customer-issued dock and monitor ... and it would forget the external monitor AND the location AND orientation every Dang WEEK I was onsite!??!!!
