I'm unable to extend my display to my second monitor.Anytime I do windows + p and click on extend, all it does is shut down my primary monitor and turn on the second one and use it as the new primary.Any way that I can fix this ?

 

PS: I've been using a work around for the past week where I basically duplicate the display then extend it but i'd really like to not have to do that anymore.

Yeah and it's always been this way.This issue has only been happening for about two weeks since the windows creator update.
