Quick way to switch between one and two screens in Windows?

Pleyland85

Hi All,

 

I use the Windows key + P quite often to switch between "PC Screen Only" and "Extend".

 

Is there a faster way to switch between the two? Like it'd be great if I could set up a hotkey to switch between the two without having to navigate the pop-up menu with this - 

 

Windows+P

Down Arrow

Down Arrow

Enter

Escape

 

Thanks!

WIN + P will also keep toggling through that menu if you keep hitting 'P' with the WIN key still held down. You also don't need to hit ENTER in that case. So, if you just remember the the number times to hit it you can switch almost instantly.

Be sure to QUOTE or TAG me in your reply so I see it!

That's definitely twice as fast! Thanks!

There are two extra ways. One is to setup AutoHotkey script for it. The other is to use desktop manager software and make two profiles you can swtich with hotkey.
