Multiple Displays - Changing on their own ?

[2097]

We have various setups on teachers machines

 

Such as

 

1 monitor and 1 Digital display screen

2 monitor and 2 Digital display screen

1 monitor and 1 projector

 

etc

 

I Have managed to remove most VGA splitters from classrooms and now most use multiple HDMI ports or VGA/HDMI for dual setups.

 

The problem i am having is, Randomly what i setup originally ( duplicate screen etc ) seems to change for different people. Do these settings get stored in a users roaming profile ? ( yep ! we are still using roaming )

 

I cant pinpoint it as when i test it with my various accounts the display settings remain unchanged.. and only change if i physically change it in display settings.

The most common cause of displays changing from duplicate to extended for us is when they do a powerpoint and it goes into presenter mode, it doesn't seem to change back afterwards. Disabling presenter mode stops it.

Thank you for that, will check that one out.

 

I had a problem yesterday , the setup had changed to "Display only on screen 1" instead of duplicate.

 

That hasn't happened very often , but has happened a few times.

 

I know the Windows+p key can change settings easily. But the teacher in question said it happened in the middle of doing something.
