Okay I probably could have answered this with Google's help, so I did. A quick search showed me that "Windows Key + P" brings up a shortcut panel to easily manage multiple displays. Note that I only use two monitors, so I don't know how well this works on 3 or more. It works for me though. Thanks for the help anyway.

Hey so I have this thing where I play an Xbox One (ew right) a bunch and I also run my PC on dual monitors. The center monitor is the one that has to be shared between PC dual monitor setup, or when I switch input to my PC, then change my display settings on Windows 10 to "Show on only 1" to "Extend these displays". Does anyone know a way around this? Like I know I will still have to switch inputs on the monitor itself, but I don't want to have to keep changing the display settings in windows. Anyone know any shortcuts?

I'm not sure if I totally unederstand your issue, but I think that a monitor switch could possibly be a solution...
