I would like to connect two HP Monitors to my laptop (for a total of 3 connected)
I don't need to see the screen on the laptop. I just want larger screens because I work from home.

What EXACTLY is your HP ENVY Laptop 17m-bw0xxx ? For example HP ENVY - 17m-bw0013dx , its specs
https://support.hp.com/au-en/document/c06038594
Probably your machine has same following ports
- 1 HDMI 2.0;
- 1 headphone/microphone combo;
- 1 RJ-45; 1 USB 3.1 Type-C™ Gen 1 (Data Transfer up to 5 Gb/s, DP1.2, HP Sleep and Charge);
- 3 USB 3.1 Gen 1 (1 HP Sleep and Charge)
The USB-C port is a big question mark because it does not support Alt mode and many members have problem when connect it to a monitor. Option
If you wish to have 2 or more external monitors, please enter your requirement on the following link and it will find for you few options on market today including some HP products:

I'm not sure where else to look for the exact name. When I open the "About" in my PC, the device specifications reads "HP ENVY Laptop 17m - bw0xxx". I do have all the ports you mentioned below. I'm going to order one of the HP docking stations that it recommends. I will come back and give feedback asap. Thank you so much!
