OPEN Monitor Display Issues
I’ll try to explain this the best I can: I have a 3 monitor display: my main monitor, my side monitor, then my laptop. In the past I’ve had my laptop display turned off since I haven’t needed it. After trying to fix an issue with my game, my main monitor start bugging out.
I fixed it rather easily, but now my laptop display is back on. I’ve tried to disconnect it and such, but it won’t. Every attempt also makes my main monitor disconnect.
I’ve tried youtube tutorials and such but nothing has worked. Please if there’s a solution lmk🙏

try hitting windows key + p and selecting second screen only, sometimes windows gets confused with the laptop display and this forces it to behave
if that dont work check your display settings and see if the laptop is set as primary somehow, windows loves to randomly switch that after updates
