I noticed a lot of people want to keep their secondary display on when they shut the lid, but seeing as I don't want the computer to go to sleep or shift all my windows around every time I close the lid, I want to be able to disable both the secondary and primary displays when I close my lid.



The fn key to turn off the screen only works on the laptop's screen.

  • Again, I just want to disable both displays when I shut the lid. I already have that setting done, but when I shut the lid since the computer does nothing it just thinks I want to turn off the laptop display and shifts all my windows around to the secondary monitor, then when I reopen the laptop puts them all on my laptop screen.
