Does it work with High Sierra 10.13.1? #75

I've got three monitors. I tried to disable one of them and all monitors went black and I had to reboot.

For me, after the High Sierra update, it simply just doesn't let me disable a monitor. They do go black, then the login screen comes back up (but not a full reboot). After signing back in, all 3 displays are still enabled.

Is this on anyone's radar to get working with High Sierra?

I have a same experience @joelzieve after update 10.13.1 :-/

@joelzieve @lukasfronc @sdondley Working for me, as in one monitor is disabled. My external monitor ended up "absorbing" the desktop background from the disabled monitor. I also saw high CPU ticks going on. Fan constantly turning on / off. I was not able to drag a window from one desktop to another (meaning they still saw the display as an active monitor). I don't know what proper functionality, but I would say this app isn't for me or doesn't work properly on high sierra.

I have one external monitor, a cheap 4k upstar M280A1 -- and a mid 2014 macbook pro. I checked this today to see if I could turn off my internal laptop monitor. Saw these questions and figured I'd try it out. So, I ended up restarting.

Same experience with HS 10.13.2. I disable internal monitor and both go black and would need to reboot.
