I think that it is Windows+D....

nevermind, i fixed it! Somehow i pressed a shortcut to show only on 2 (my secondary display monitor) so i set that back to extend displays. I have no idea what the shortcut could have been :D... Now all my icons are messed up :D

Today i was gaming on overwatch and mashed my keyboard a little and suddenly my main monitor stopped inputting any display and the game and the desktop all suddenly shifted to my secondary monitor. I cant seem to get my main monitor to input anything at all... help! What buttons could i have pressed for this to occur?
