wired display

On Windows 10, a second monitor may be incorrectly detected as a 'Wired Display' instead of its proper model name, particularly in dual-GPU systems. This issue can prevent the desktop from extending to the second monitor even when Windows settings show it as detected. Users troubleshooting this problem often find that the monitor works correctly in other operating systems, ruling out hardware or cabling faults. The 'Wired Display' label in Display Settings indicates a driver or GPU detection problem, commonly requiring driver reinstallation, GPU switching, or registry edits to resolve.
