    Display settings wont open


    Hello,

    i just moved and for my new settup i changed the positioning of my first and sec screen.
    As i wanted to change the display position in windows my Displaysettings wouldnt open.
    Assoon i changed the settings via win+p to dublicate or only 1 screen they opend.
    When i tryed to keep them open and then change the setting from dublicate to expand the setting window froze and displayed the curser you normaly get when you change the size of a window.

    The only thing that shows when i try to open the display settings is the window with the gear in full blue and nothing changes in 5 mins.

    Im running win 10 Home edition 2004 with the current build no. 19041.450.

    Gonna restart the Pc again but would be thankfull about any hints on how to solve this.

    Not a native eng speaker so pls excuse any typos or words i used wrong.

    Greetings Joflo

    If a Restart didn't fix this would you care to provide details about your graphics card brand/model and driver version ?

    Basically this is one of those problems that has to be first sorted by seeing if the GPU you have has a Set Priority for display ports and screens , in such case you may change screen position in place/on desk but reverse order of the plugs becomes a must to compensate the change .

    If not then clean install of driver by uninstalling it via DDU tool then re-installing it may fix you .

    If Not try checking for installation corruption SFC /SCANNOW in a command prompt that ran with administrator privilege .

    If not then you are down to re-installing Windows 10 2004 in place via Windows10 Media Creation tool .
