  1. Jump List Vertical Spacing

    So would you prefer a list of word documents?
  2. Jump List Vertical Spacing

    The jump list is a Windows feature not an App feature so I assumed Windows General Support was a reasonable place to ask :-) All apps on the task bar display a jump list when you hover over them. For limited entries, the jump list is a small display of the app's screen shown horizontally. If...
  3. Jump List Vertical Spacing

    The jump list is not a Win Explorer feature and sadly this makes no difference at all. (Its actually already set to compact)
  4. Jump List Vertical Spacing

    Hi All Recent move to Win11 leaves me wishing I hadn't! Still I suppose its inevitable! Current challenge is the jump list line spacing which is way too large and limits severely the number of items that can be viewed easily How can I reduce the line spacing on jump lists. (Jump list is the...
  5. Win 11 Wont duplicate main screen on external monitor

    I have no means of measuring the signal the PC is putting out but what you are suggesting seems illogical - possible but illogical! The screen is normally set at something the projector cannot handle (1920x1080) but the automatic conversion works just fine and the projector is actually sent...
  6. Win 11 Wont duplicate main screen on external monitor

    Thanks for looking all that up. I did already try SXGA 1280x1024 with a V Freq of 60.01 (the only Freq that the laptop lists) but it makes no difference I have now also tried resetting the projector but that too has made no difference. Its clear from the fact that the screen changes briefy...
  7. Win 11 Wont duplicate main screen on external monitor

    Interesting . . . The Sanyo manual lists loads of acceptable signal details If I pick one SXGA 1280x1024 the manual lists 2 frequencies H freq 63.74; V freq 60.01 So I set display res at 1280x1024 Display->Advanced-Refresh rate only has 1 rate in the drop down box 60.01 so I set that But there...
  8. Win 11 Wont duplicate main screen on external monitor

    OK so the problem appears to be related to the connection If I use a projector with an HDMI connector all 4 options work fine The Sanyo does not support HDMI input so I have an HDMI to VGA adapter. Bizarrely With an HP DV6 (my old computer) the connection via the HDMI-VGA adapter worked fine...
  9. Win 11 Wont duplicate main screen on external monitor

    Thanks to all that replied I know the monitor is connected and works correctly because, as in the original post: Extend Screen shows the PC screen on the PC and the extension on the monitor (Correct) Second Screen only shows black on the PC screen; and the PC screen on the monitor In fact...
  10. Win 11 Wont duplicate main screen on external monitor

    Please note the original post says Extend Screen shows the PC screen on the PC and the extension on the monitor (Correct). Second Screen only shows black on the PC screen; and the PC screen on the monitor so the monitor is connected correctly and working properly
  11. Win 11 Wont duplicate main screen on external monitor

    Its actually a SANYO PLCXW20 projector. But this seems unlikely as the "Second Screen Only" option displays perfectly on the projector as does the "extend" option.
  12. Win 11 Wont duplicate main screen on external monitor

    This is indeed correct and I include it mainly to show the monitor is connected correctly and working The "Duplicate" option is the one that is incorrect and I expect it to be a setting saved somewhere but crucially Which Setting, Saved Where!
  13. Win 11 Wont duplicate main screen on external monitor

    Lenovo V15 Win 11 22h2 all current updates. Connect to an external monitor and this is what the 4 options do PC Screen only shows PC screen on the PC ; nothing on the monitor (Correct) Duplicate screen shows PC screen on the PC; nothing on the monitor (which displays 'No Signal') Extend Screen...
  14. Win 11 Network visibility issues (Win 7 and Win 10)

Logon Passwd1) can see win 10 and Win 11 but cant access them (Windows cannot access \\PCNAME)...
