Dispalys forgetting previous layout settings

marklnagy · 05-20-2023, 03:00 AM

I have a Macbook Pro M2. Running Monterey V 12.6.1.

I have 2 Display Links, one at the office and one at home. I run 2 external screens which connect perfectly in both locations.

However, every time I reconnect my Mac now, it forgets the screen layout I had when I disconnected the USB C plug from the displaylink. Even if my Mack goes to sleep. When I wake it up, the screen layouts changes. Its extremely frustrating because I often have browsers, email clients and spreadsheets open and I need to go back every time and put the apps back in the screens I need them to reside on.

My displaylink/s are running DisplayLink manager 1.8.1 (build 63.180).

Any advice would be greatly appreciated as the having to rearrange my screens sevral times a day is totally frustrating and I am not keen set my Mac's sleep settings to never so I don't lose the layouts.

Thanks everyone...
