Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. When you connect a display to your computer in Windows 11, it plays a multiple second animation where both displays zoom out, and then zoom back in. It also pauses those displays for the duration of the animation. This pause is frustrating while you're playing a game, watching media, or if you just want to use your system while connecting the display.

Describe the solution you'd like I would like for the animation to be disabled, and for the monitors to no longer pause during a display connection.

Describe alternatives you've considered Many other users have recommended going to Settings>Accessibility>Visusal effects, and disabling Animation effects in the windows settings. This solution, however, disables all animations on the system, which is a very undesirable solution to me.

Additional context This display animation and pause was not present in Windows 10. See video below for an example of the animation, and how it pauses the system.

There is no way to separate this animation with others. Maybe you should send feedback to microsoft...
