I have two screens hooked up to my laptop. I am able to view items on two different screens. One being the laptop and the other is one of the monitors. Through extended view I can move back and forth between screens. However the third monitor will only show my laptop screen. Can somebody tell me how I can move things back and forth on all three screens? One of the screens is hooked up through vga and the other through thunderbolt.

@Martinez23 To change the viewing mode on Windows 10, use these steps:
- Open Settings.
- Click on System.
- Click on Display.
- Under the "Select and rearrange displays" section, select the monitor that you want to adjust.
-
Under the "Multiple displays" section, use the drop-down menu to set the appropriate viewing mode, including:
- Duplicate desktop — Shows duplicate desktop according to the description.
- Extend — Expands the primary desktop to the display currently selected.
- Disconnect this display — Turn off the selected monitor.
After you complete the steps, you may need to repeat steps No. 4 and 5 to set the display mode on the remaining monitors. Also, note that using these settings, you can make any of the monitors as your primary display.
