When you're in a conference room and need to project, connect your PC using one of the cable connectors in the room, press the Windows logo key + P, and then choose one of the four options:
-
PC screen only. You'll see everything on your PC. (When you're connected to a wireless projector, this option changes to Disconnect.)
-
Duplicate. You'll see the same things on both screens.
-
Extend. You'll see everything across both screens, and you can drag and move items between the two.
-
Second screen only. You'll see everything on the connected screen. The other screen will be blank.
Then again, you might not even need a cable. If your PC and the projector both support Miracast, press the Windows logo key + K, choose a projector, and you're set.
Not sure if your PC supports Miracast? Windows will let you know. Just press the Windows logo key + K to check.
