CTRL-Alt-2 moves to the second screen windows - how to disable

Hello

I have a new computer to dual screen in Windows 8.  When I do Ctrl + Alt + 2, my current window is moved to the screen 2 (and equivalent to 1).  Does anyone know if it is a shortcut of Windows 8 or another utility?  I have a nVidia graphics card and the 7200LE Panel is not shortcut (besides the stereoscopic 3D features that are disabled).

The problem is that Windows seems to treat the key ALT GR (right Alt key for the keyboard layout of the French-Canada) as a combination of Ctrl + Alt, then when I press Alt Gr + 2 to type the symbol @, my window also moves to the second screen.  The equivalent problem is when I type the ± symbol (AltGr + 1 gives my character, and move the window), but this isn't as big a problem.

Anyway, if anyone knows how to disable the Ctrl + Alt + 2 sets of shortcuts, or how to make windows treat differently the keys Ctrl + Alt, AltGr do let me know.

Thank you

I had the same problem, and in my case it was a third-party application that came with a USB to DVI adapter.

The utility is called "MCTDUtil.exe" and is in "\Program Files".

It has a visible icon called "Super Utility".  There, you have a menu called "Multi Display Control Panel".  The Ctrl-Alt-1 and Ctrl-Alt-2 are mapped to do exactly this: move the window being displayed 1 and 2 respectively.  You can disable the feature of this Panel.

I suspect that this utility is not necessary and can be removed.

This occurs if Windows Media Player or Realplayer is used. All other programs and images are visible on the external monitor or laptop screen.

    Hello

    Most Windows applications and video cards do not support playback of video files on the screens at the same time. You can try to disable the video signal going to the built in LCD screen and display only through the projector.

  • Y510P image does not fit into the second screen using HDMI

    Hi, I have the Y510P with Windos 8.1 latest graphic drivers. I am connect to my HDTV via HDMI and the image fits well in my TV and it has a little zoomed. I was looking for a solution in all the menus of Intel HD 4600, nVIDIA Control Panel, Windows scaling... Nothing works. I have another laptop and it has an option that is changing the image and the TV shows that what is supposed to be for show.

    How can I solve this and did what I see in the screen of my laptop on the second screen (TV)?

    Thank you!

    I have a 1280 x 720 Samsung TV, I don't know the model exactly.

    The probem disappear when you change your screen resolution, or change the size of the elements, or something like that. It has something to do with the Panel of Intel, where there is a scaling option, in the tab 'display '. Well, there should be an option to select the scale, but it is not.

    So, to make it appear, you need to do this:

    1. connect the HDMI

    2 desktop, right-click, screen resolution, in 'View', you must select your TV, in my case "Samsung TV"

    3. you change the resolution from 1080 to 720

    4. then select Samsung TV as output ONLY screen, so the screen of the laptop turns off

    5. go in Control Panel (right click, graphics properties... office, display) Intel

    6. NOW, in the scaling box, you can move the 2 sliders and adjust the image, so now I can make it adapt to the screen

    Although it is a solution, and everything works fine, I don't like. I should be able to look at the screen of my laptop, and the most annoying is that steps 1 to 5 are reset every time you unplug the HDMI. It is a temporary solution.

    I want my nVIDIA GT 755 M to take control of the HDMI, I think that I could just plug the HDMI then automatically shows properly scaling the picture of my TV. Just plug and unplug, like all my other computers.

    Thanks for the help and hope I can find a real solution.

  • HOWTO define the second screen?

    Hello

    I have a Setup to monitor tripple (a Samsung for coding, the iMac 27 "non-retine and a screen 24" Apple Led Cinema-> in that order). Lightroom choose the Samsung as the second screen, but I want the Apple Cinema (the display on the right side of my iMac which is my primary monitor). I am able to move the window manually to use this form, but the second is still the Samsung.

    So, what can I do to change permanently the second screen?

    Thanks for the tips and tricks

    Abhijit

    It is a question unresolved, which was for the first time five years ago: Lightroom: ability to assign a second monitor with more than 3 monitors. Photoshop family customer community you can read some of the posts with solutions on the link above and see if one of them solves your problem.

    The only other suggestion I can give you is to try swapping the crush of ports used for Apple Cinema and Samsung monitors. Connect the cable of Samsung display in the Thunderbolt port, used by the Apple Cinema and vice versa for the Apple Cinema cable for display. Logically, this should exchange the display that receives the secondary window of LR, but I have not seen anyone offer it as a solution. Unfortunately, I don't own an iMac so he can't test me.

  • Three-Way Color Corrector eyedropper tool works only on the second screen in OSX Maverick

    Hello

    Since the update to the Mavericks at work on Monday, I was unable to use the eyedropper tool to the three way color corrector on a dual monitor configuration in first Pro CC.

    I have all of my panels, outside of my program monitor Panel, on a screen. When I select the Eyedropper to the three way color corrector white balance and go to the second screen where my program Panel is, he turns his back on an arrow and I cannot select anything. When I move my Panel program to display as well as others it allows me to use it as usual. Unfortunately, this is not how I work and I would like that the program works normally.

    I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem and found a solution. I will report to bug right now.

    Thank you.

    Hi Punker,

    Thanks for posting the workaround. It is a known issue that we're investigating. FOW now workaround is to:

    GoTo > System Preferences > Mission Control.

    Uncheck "screens have a separate space.

    System disconnection or re - start.

  • Windows move to the main screen when sleeping Satellite-S50T-B

    Satellite S50T-B, Windows 8.1. Whenever my laptop sleeps, it moves all the icons and windows open on the secondary external monitor on the laptop monitor. Like a lover double screen, it's extremely annoying. I keep having to set up my work space.

    I expect that there is a bug in the video driver, which means that she sees the monitor off as a result of the command 'sleep' of the laptop as a monitor "unplugged" and it is reported to the operating system for the operating system moves all the icons and windows on the main screen, so when I turn again, they are all in the wrong place.

    Please note that the disappearance of the screen as a direct result of it being sent a sleep command should not be interpreted in any way other than the monitor to sleep as said.

    The graphics driver is old way... When can we expect an update?
    When I can see a fix for this frustrating problem?

    Hello

    If you would google for this problem, you will find a lot of discussions and information about this system.

    From my point of few this issue is linked to the State in sleep mode. There are the States of sleep mode (S0, S1, S2, S3, S4)

    S3 is generally the default standby mode, while the S4 is generally the mode of hibernation by default.
    Here all the details:

    You can use the PowerCfg command to change these settings

  • CTRL-Alt-Del bring up the Task Manager

    CTRL-Alt-Del bring up the Task Manager

    Some malicious software is aware of the methods you're most likely to use to find and remove it (Task Manager, System Restore, command prompt, Internet, Google, etc.)
    The malware does not allows you to use things like the Task Manager to find and remove, so it prevents them from becoming a process running on the system and the process will not start or the process will be completed as soon as it is launched.
    The malware is happier when he let you think you need to use system restore, a repair install or reinstall your XP from scratch to fix your system when none of this is necessary.
    You can fool the malware (and then fix it).
    Assuming that your Windows is installed on your drive C, using Windows Explorer, navigate to the folder c:\windows\system32 and locate taskmgr.exe.
    Copy the taskmgr.exe file and rename the copy something malicious software will not recognize.  I like to call the copy:
    c:\windows\system32\jose.exe
    Double-click on jose.exe and see if the Windows Task Manager window opens now.
    The problem is the malware won't let the taskmgr.exe a running process, but he does not know jose.exe as a process running as well
    beat you all (I have a feeling that he will well a day on jose.exe).
    Will not 'fix' your task manager, but at least you will know whether or not the Task Manager mechanism works (taskmgr.exe still not start properly).
    If you try to remove some malware and the need to use the Task Manager, you can simply launch jose.exe (double-click) instead, but your system will always be afflicted, until you remove the malicious software.
    Usually, there are a few other things that also don't work you would probably find out later, so I recommend you do this:
    Reduce the risk of malware by running some scans.
    Download, install, update and do a full scan with these free malware detection programs can solve any problems:
    Malwarebytes (MMFA): http://malwarebytes.org/
    SUPERAntiSpyware: (SAS): http://www.superantispyware.com/
    It can be uninstalled later if you wish.
    The scans by operating clean, restart, test your task manager and we can repair any other pending issues.
    If things look good, you can delete the c:\windows\system32\jose.exe file.

    Do, or do not. There is no test.

  • How to push the second screen?

    Hello

    I am writing an application in which I'm trying to push a second display to a custom in the first menu item. The first screen is pushed successfully and the custom menu items are filled with a bluetoothserialportlistener. Once I click on a special menu item, I want to launch the second screen. I used a dialog.alert to verify that the the menuitem run() method works, but the second screen is not displayed.

    Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!

    The first screen is created by hand (String [] args)

    MatMain app = new MatMain();

    app.enterEventDispatcher ();

    private MatMain() {}

    pushScreen (new WelcomeScreen());

    }

    I tried to call the second screen as follows:

    synchronized (UiApplication.getEventLock ()) {

    getUiEngine () .pushScreen (new MatOnline (_info));

    }

    I also tried:

    UiApplication.getUiApplication () .pushScreen (new MatOnline (_info));

    Thanks again!

    Hello

    I think you're trying in a very complex way.

    Your architecture using complex and ignoring the bluetooth codes related, I can see your second screen with a minor modification.

    In your DeviceMenuItem class.

    replaced

    MatMain.getUiApplication () .pushScreen (new MatOnline (_info));

    with

    UiApplication.getUiApplication () .pushScreen (new MatOnline (_info));

    And in your class MatOnline:

    replaced

    HorizontalFieldManager _fieldManagerOnline;
    with

    HorizontalFieldManager _fieldManagerOnline = new HorizontalFieldManager();
