I am sorry, I think I made a mistake somewhere. Here is a hopefully bug fixed version of the utility. Could you please give this a try?

Yes! We have the distinguishing flag for the monitor: DISPLAY_DEVICE_ACTIVE. 5B71 is actrive, 5B55 is not, And we can see it!

Stand by for incoming test Oolite executable please. I think we may have got it this time [crosses fingers].

I think that's my mistake again. You can see that it has successfully recognized that the 5B55 is not an active monitor, though.

Can you try this build please? I changed it to go through each and every monitor of each adapter.
