Forums -> UltraMon™ -> Display profile error when run twice

I have three display profiles for my dual monitor setup hooked up to three macro keys that run the display profile. The three profiles are represented with :) being an enabled monitor and :( being a disabled monitor.

The issue is that if I'm on the profile MainMonitorOnly and run the macro to re-open the MainMonitorOnly profile again then SecondMonitorOnly opens. I don't think it actually opens SecondMonitorOnly but it confuses which monitor is which number because that the other monitor is disabled. The same issue occurs if I open SecondMonitorOnly twice. This is a very insignificant issue but if anyone knows why/how to solve it would be appreciated.

Oh no, the formatting for the ascii monitors screwed up, but I'm sure you can understand what's going on.

If you're on Windows 7 or later, try the following: with both monitors enabled, run FixMonIds.vbs, this ensures each monitor gets assigned a unique number. You may need to recreate your display profiles after running the script.
