[dba-Tech] Screens Flipped

Hi Rocky:

Unfortunately, a Windows10 update that borks the system is not unusual. I have no idea why a bad release happens but in some cases the only solution is to roll back everything to the previous version and then wait for the faulty update to be fixed before attempting another install. Check out the following:

Easy :) But it didn't work. :(

That was my first approach.  I don't know why that didn't work. There are an update installed last night I was going to uninstall that next. 

But did you read my post to Gary about the solution.  THAT was unintuitive.  I still don't know how it worked or why.  Still don't know how it was caused or why.

One step away from my go to solution - percussive maintenance.

Go into display properties and click and drag the right monitor to the left. As easy as it is unintuitive.

Dear Lists:

Last night there was, apparently, a Windows Update.  Today I found that my dual monitor extended displays were flipped. The opening Win display was on the right instead of the left. And to get the mouse from the right display to the left display I had to move it to the right off the right hand display and then it re-appeared on the left side of the left hand display.

In display settings the rearrange your displays window shows them where they were and flipping them doesn't change anything.

I can't figure out how to get them back.

Does anyone know?

Mil gracias in advance,

Rocky
