Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Looking to purchase a USB to HDMI adaptor to add external displays to my laptop. Will either of the two left side USB port allow for video (with a adaptor)? Any working solutions by using one of the two left side USB ports. HDMI splitters seem to have a screen one option only...

Thank you

Its specs

 

            https://support.hp.com/au-en/document/c04773111

 

which says it has

 

 
1 multi-format SD media card reader
2 SuperSpeed USB 3.0, 1 supporting USB Boost
1 Universal Serial Bus (USB)
1 HDMI
1 RJ-45 (LAN)
1 Headphone-out/microphone-in combo jack

 

You can use its HDMI port to connect to an external monitor.

 

Regards.

Thank you for your response Banhien. I am currently using the HDMI port to feed one monitor. My inquiry is to see if anyone's knowledge of the USB ports on left side of laptop are capable of video with a USB to HDMI (external) adapter. Thank you for your help.
