Save monitor configurations of Windows 7 or 10 and easily switch between them with a click in a popup menu of your taskbar.
The tool is designed for users with two or more monitors who in certain situations would like to quickly change their monitor setup (e.g. enable/disable a TV which is attached to the HDMI port, make an attached TV the primary display to remove tearing switch which monitor is on the left/right...). Along the monitor state and setup the resolution is also saved and restored.
The program works by saving a current monitor setup as configured using the windows control panel to an xml file. Once saved the configuration can be quickly restored at any time. Requires .NET 4.0 Framework to be installed.
The program is quite simple and in an early development stage. It is provided without any warranty. If you accidentally disable all your monitors boot into safe mode to fix the problem.

Fantastic utility program that's super easy to use and write batch files for. I Have it set up to switch between monitor profiles that I use for my giant monitor that I turn into an ultrawide for gaming. I also have it set up to disable all my physical monitors and set a virtual one as primary for streaming over Sunshine to my Steam Deck so nothing is playing on my actual monitors. Great stuff!

Excellent bit of software. Solved my Problem of having to switch all my display settings when I wanted to play on my TV vs my monitors while also allowing me to keep everything plugged in at the same time.

It's very good BUT (hence 4 stars) - does not support switching between individual monitors setups and nvidia surround, so when that one is enabled (unfortunately some games require it!), i cannot use monswicher to switch to other setups. Otherwise, aside from lacking that feature - brilliant!

Not rating this program 5 stars is criminal.. I have a virtual pinball machine and needed a way to make the backglass the "Primary Monitor" for windows when I wanted to play Teknoparrot racing games from my PinballY Frontend but also had to be able to switch the Table screen to "Primary Monitor" when I exited the game. This program solved that. Add me to the list of people who signed up to Sourceforge to say thanks and enjoy the 5 Euros from PayPal.. I know it is not much, but, it is the thought that counts.
