If your Windows 11 computer screen is upside down, you can follow these steps to fix the orientation:
- Keyboard Shortcut: Many graphics drivers allow you to rotate the screen using a keyboard shortcut. Try pressing
Ctrl
+Alt
+Arrow keys
(up, down, left, or right) simultaneously. This keyboard shortcut is often used to change the screen orientation. - Settings:
- Right-click on the desktop and select “Display settings.”
- Scroll down to the “Orientation” dropdown menu.
- Choose the correct orientation (landscape, portrait, etc.) for your monitor.
- Graphics Control Panel:
- Right-click on the desktop and select “Graphics Options” or “Graphics Properties.”
- Look for an option related to screen rotation or orientation.
- Adjust the rotation settings to the desired orientation.
- Graphics Driver Settings:
- Right-click on the desktop and select “Graphics Properties” or “Graphics Options.”
- Navigate to the rotation or orientation settings within your graphics control panel.
- Adjust the settings to correct the upside-down display.
- Keyboard and Mouse Settings:
- Right-click on the desktop and select “Personalize.”
- Click on “Change mouse pointers” on the left sidebar.
- Go to the “Pointer Options” tab and uncheck the box for “Allow the pointer to be moved offscreen.”
- Apply the changes and see if it resolves the issue.
- Restart the Computer: Sometimes, a simple restart can resolve display issues. Restart your computer and check if the screen orientation is corrected.
If none of these methods work, it’s possible that there may be an issue with your graphics driver. You may need to update or reinstall your graphics driver. You can do this through the Device Manager:
- Right-click on the Start button and select “Device Manager.”
- Locate the “Display adapters” section, expand it, and right-click on your graphics adapter.
- Select “Update driver” and follow the on-screen instructions to update the driver.
