Driver randomly stopped working #51

I want to say that the software worked perfectly until today, a couple of times the display randomly disabled after leaving the pc in sleep mode for hours but worked again with a restart, today I tried to connect with moonlight and this happened, tried uninstalling and installing again, restart, and downloading files again, nothing worked

image as u can see the resolution and scale options are gray and I cant put windows into the display, its not working at all

image also in advance settings it says "second display is not active" (idk what that could mean)

Hey, I had this same issue with the monitor not being active. Not sure if you figured it out already but I saw in Display settings that the IddSampleDriver monitor was set to "Disconnect this display" Changing this to Extend desktop fixed it for me.

Is this issue considered solved? There are powershell scritps on the way for this and a few other "utils", probably in next release.

+1, also running into this issue. When I try to "Extend desktop to this display" from the "Disconnect this display" state, it automatically reverts to disconnected state after a few seconds.

+1, suddenly stop working and won't show on my display settings, i tried disabled and re-enabled it again, the driver just seems to stop functioning. End up have to re-install again a 2nd driver for it's to work.

Was the options.txt file removed from the C:\IddSampleDriver folder? (or was that folder removed?) The driver checks it on startup.
