Take full control of
every display on your PC
Display EX fills the gaps Windows never addressed: per‑app refresh rates, HDR tuning, reliable DPI scaling and saved multi‑monitor profiles — all in a lightweight utility that stays out of your way.
Switch display presets in one click for work, gaming and media. No more re‑entering Windows Display Settings after every reboot or app launch.
Per‑App Profiles
Automatically switch display profiles for games and apps — resolution, HDR, color and refresh rate on the fly.
Fix Blurry Text
Advanced DPI handling and ClearType tweaks for crisp UI on 4K and HiDPI monitors across every app.
Multi‑Monitor Presets
Arrange screens, set individual scaling per display and save layouts as named presets — restore with one click.
High Refresh Rates
Unlock 120 Hz / 144 Hz / 240 Hz modes and manage per‑profile refresh switching for gaming vs. desktop use.
HDR Tuning
Enable and adjust HDR per monitor with fine‑grained controls that Windows Settings simply don't expose.
Lightweight
Minimal CPU and RAM footprint. Runs in the system tray and responds in milliseconds — no bloat, no lag.
Why Display EX instead of built‑in Windows tools?
Windows Display Settings cover the basics, but stop short of what power users and professionals need. Display EX picks up exactly where Microsoft left off.
Profiles that remember everything
Windows doesn't save per‑app display states. Display EX does — resolution, refresh rate, HDR and scaling are restored automatically whenever a specific app launches.
True DPI control
The OS‑level DPI slider is coarse and global. Display EX provides per‑display, per‑app DPI overrides so every piece of software renders at the correct sharpness.
Multi‑monitor sanity
Switching between your home triple‑monitor rig and a single laptop screen scrambles your layout. Named presets snap everything back in one click — window positions included.
Who uses Display EX?
From gamers to graphic designers, Display EX adapts to how you work and play.
🎮 Gamers
Launch your game and have Display EX automatically switch to 144 Hz, disable HDR if needed and restore everything when you exit — no manual fiddling between sessions.
🎨 Creative professionals
Design on a calibrated wide‑gamut display then switch to sRGB for web previews, all with named presets. Colour accuracy where you need it, every time.
💼 Remote & hybrid workers
One click to swap between your office triple‑monitor layout and the single‑screen laptop profile — no scrambled windows, no hunting through settings.
