No I have 2 external monitors and my laptop. I want to extend (Not duplicate) the first and second screen so I can show different apps on the first and second screen and be able to see and control apps on both monitors from my own laptop screen..

thanks

What do you mean by "app". As in, you want to run a .exe program and have it show on Your 2nd monitor as appose to your built in laptop screen?

Yes, Let's assume that I have personal documents or applications open on my own Laptop's monitor I don't want to show to some people around me ... but in the mean time I want to work on something else while those people are watching the first screen (Word)

The second Screen is being watched by someone else who I am showing how to use a Server (Microsoft Windows) .

I Just tried this app https://sourceforge.net/projects/virtuawin/?source=typ_redirect
It creates 4 different virtual desktops .. but still I can't bring each virtual desktop in a separate (Physical monitor) ..

So It's not possible to virtualize and control the physically extended monitor ? that's a pity.

I downloaded a program called Dexpot. it shows different desktops but still I can't separate monitors on virtual desktops.
