HP 17.3 inch Laptop PC 17-cp0000 (2Q7W8AV)
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Does the HP 17.3 inch Laptop PC 17-cp0000 support multiple monitors if a USB 3.0-to-HDMI adapter is connected? Whenever I ask this question, I'm only told that I can connect a monitor using the HDMI port. I understand that, which is why my question is about USB 3.0 compatibility with "multiple monitors" using an adapter. Thanks in advance.

The answer is yes. I purchased a USB 3-to-HDMI adapter from Amazon and it worked. I had tried a USB-C to HDMI cable, as well as a USB-C hub with several ports including HDMI ports, and neither worked. I couldn't find any documentation that they wouldn't work and no one from Support was able to help me without me having to pay for the monthly service. Either way, it works w/ the adapter.
