Not a DisplayFusion issue so can be closed. Although if someone knows why it's happening on Wake On LAN please let me know. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/wake-from-sleep-laptop-monitor-doesnt-turn-back-on/?ID=4a5618c1-c939-4145-94f4-78fa25faab82#5 Mon, 28 Jun 2021 20:30:44 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/wake-from-sleep-laptop-monitor-doesnt-turn-back-on/?ID=4a5618c1-c939-4145-94f4-78fa25faab82#5 DisplayFusion Just tried it and yeah it's still happening, so I guess it's not a DisplayFusion issue. Now I think it's this WakeFromLan app I'm using, it never did it when I used to wake computer from wireless keyboard/mouse. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/wake-from-sleep-laptop-monitor-doesnt-turn-back-on/?ID=4a5618c1-c939-4145-94f4-78fa25faab82#4 Mon, 28 Jun 2021 19:58:28 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/wake-from-sleep-laptop-monitor-doesnt-turn-back-on/?ID=4a5618c1-c939-4145-94f4-78fa25faab82#4 DisplayFusion If you exit DisplayFusion, does it still happen? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/wake-from-sleep-laptop-monitor-doesnt-turn-back-on/?ID=4a5618c1-c939-4145-94f4-78fa25faab82#3 Mon, 28 Jun 2021 13:39:08 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/wake-from-sleep-laptop-monitor-doesnt-turn-back-on/?ID=4a5618c1-c939-4145-94f4-78fa25faab82#3 DisplayFusion Bump, issue still happening. Hoping someone might know why. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/wake-from-sleep-laptop-monitor-doesnt-turn-back-on/?ID=4a5618c1-c939-4145-94f4-78fa25faab82#2 Sun, 27 Jun 2021 14:39:19 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/wake-from-sleep-laptop-monitor-doesnt-turn-back-on/?ID=4a5618c1-c939-4145-94f4-78fa25faab82#2 DisplayFusion I just figured something out that's odd if I press a key on the laptop the screen turns on, which I don't see how the TV would be displaying it because it's the same computer but somehow the laptop monitor sleeps while the computer is awake. Never seen anything like this before. It has to be a key on the laptop though if i try clicking with the wireless mouse/keyboard even though I can tell I should be on the laptop display it does not turn on.

To be fair the culprit might not even be DisplayFusion I'm using WakeFromLan as I'm using a wireless mouse/keyboard that's hooked up to another laptop on this laptop with an app. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/wake-from-sleep-laptop-monitor-doesnt-turn-back-on/?ID=4a5618c1-c939-4145-94f4-78fa25faab82 Sun, 27 Jun 2021 14:29:54 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/wake-from-sleep-laptop-monitor-doesnt-turn-back-on/?ID=4a5618c1-c939-4145-94f4-78fa25faab82 DisplayFusion I have a Acer Nitro 5 Laptop and it's hooked up to my TV with HDMI. I have the TV set as main display and laptop as secondary and using extended desktop. When I wake from sleep The TV comes on but the laptop does not. I tried rebooting, disabling the monitor in settings etc... doesn't help. The only thing I've found to get the monitor to come back on at all is unplug the HDMI cable from the laptop. I never had any issues before using DisplayFusion a few weeks ago. Any help would be appreciated. This problem only started last night before that it was working normally so I'm not sure why.

I'm using DisplayFusion Pro Trial 9.8. ]]>
