Screen keeps rotating sideways

My laptop screen keeps rotating sideways when it only has one monitor connected. Even external. I have had Windows 10 installed since the day it came out, and never had this issue. 
I have auto-rotate turned off.
I go into Screen Resolution --> Orientation  --> Landscape --> Apply.
As soon as I switch to another app or program, the screen rotates back. I then ran windows update and found a driver update and still the same issue. 
Any Ideas?

If you are comfortable using registry editor, follow these steps.
( ***** if you are not familiar with registry editing, DON'T use this method ***** )
Method to disable screen auto rotation :
Right click Start button > select Run > type regedit > OK
Expand ( click the pointer in front of ) HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
expand Software
expand Microsoft
expand Windows
expand CurrentVersions
select AutoRotation > righ side, right click at Enable > click Modify > at the Value data box, change the 1 to 0 > OK when done.
Exit regedit.

  • Iphone 4 screen keeps rotating when closing apps

    It only started a few days ago but it's starting to get on my nerves.  My iPhone 4 screen keeps rotating when I go to close an app, and it rotates back when I go back to the home screen.
    I don't know why it's doing it, but was wondering if anyone did know.  And if so how to fix it?
    Thanks a bunch!

    It's fixed nevermind..

  • Screen keeps rotating a pain in the rear. How do I stop

    the screen rotates on its own. I reset it (difficult) and it will rotate back. How do I make it stop,

    To downgrade to Firefox 3.6 first uninstall Firefox 4, but do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data". If you select that option it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data.
    You can then install the latest version of Firefox 3.6 available from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html - it will automatically use your current bookmarks, passwords etc.
    To avoid possible problems with downgrading, I recommend going to your profile folder and deleting the following files if they exist - extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite and localstore.rdf. Deleting these files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of installed extensions, checking their compatibility, and reset toolbar customizations.
    For details of how to find your profile folder see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Profiles

  • Why is my ipad keep restarting almost every 5 minutes and also why is the screen not rotating.

    why is my ipad keep restarting almost every 5 minutes and also why is the screen not rotating.

    Nobody here can answer a question like that. Try rebooting your iPad and see if that helps.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • Facetime keeps rotating screen when not moving, restart not helps

    I am using ipad2, OS 4.3.1. facetime keeps rotating screen when not moving, and I restart ipad2 but it does not help. Is this due to earlier version of OS or it's a bug of facetime?

    It is odd that your screen will only rotate without you touching your iPad, during a factime call.  In all the factime calls I've made, I've never had my screen rotate if I wasn't touching my unit.  I will say that the gyro on both my iPads is pretty sensitive and I've found it quite easy to get the screen to rotate with a simple movement of my iPad. 
    The only other suggestion I have is one that will take more effort and work and still, it may not solve your problem.  It is one Apple will request you do, before making an appointment with the Genius bar, so you might as well do this.
    You should back up your iPad, then restore your iPad from the backup.  If that does not solve the problem, the last option is to do a full restore of your iPad as a new unit.  Then, you'll sync over the content you want from Apps, to music, to pictures, etc.  Again, before you do either a restore from backup, do back it up. 
    If all that doesn't solve your problem, make an appointment with the Genius Bar at your Apple store.  If they find you have a deffective unit, they will replace it.
    I hope you get this resolved. 

  • How do i stop the screen from rotating on my iphone

    how do i stop the screen from rotating on my iphone when i move the phone from horizontal to vertical

    You can lock your screen from rotating. Double-click the home button, then slide your finger to the right until your get to the iPod section. There you click the icon on the left and that will lock your screen. You can unlock it the same way.

  • Satellite A300 screen keeps jumping up and down

    Hi,
    What is on my screen keeps jumping up and down, any thoughts, is this a problem with video card in Satellite A300?

    I have tried to install the display driver from the European website. During uninstallation I got a messgae to say failures occurred during uninstallation, and then during installation I got the message of Install package failure!
    I have my external monitor now connected to laptop, but in personalising display settings, I cannot get my computer to recognise that I have two monitors now, as both keep coming up with number 1 (Multiple Monitors) on ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650, and they both have that degraded view, a bit like in safe mode.
    So in checking of device manager under display adapters I have:
    ATI Mobility Radeon HD3650
    and under Sound, video and game controllers I have:
    High Definition Audio Device
    Realtek High Definition Audio
    In this whole process I deleted a file that was previously here called
    ATI HMD...
    should I resinstall this?
    So I'm not sure if the new display driver has been installed? help.

    Maybe wait longer and see if it does anything or if anything comes up.

  • Why does my screen keep dimming and brightening?

    I'm just sitting here in front of my fire during a mid-March snow storm in Maine, and my screen keeps dimming and then brightening.  It's getting quite annoying. What is going on?

    OK, I figured it out - it's the auto brightness adjustment. Found the answer in the pane to the right of my comment.

  • Desktop screen keeps flashing black and dock has disappeared. iMAC X Yosemite 10.10.1

    Recently I updated my iMac to OS X Yosemite 10.10.1. All was operating smoothly for a few weeks until one day i started up and logged in my dock was nowhere to be seen. The desktop screen started flashing black replacing my desktop image. None of my desktop icons disappear when this happens. screen keeps flashing black every few seconds. Also the dock has disappeared.
    I have restarted in safe boot and it makes no changes.
    iMAC X Yosemite 10.10.1
    Please help!

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
    Step 1
    For this step, the title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
              SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
    from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
              View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
    In the top right corner of the Console window, there's a search box labeled Filter. Initially the words "String Matching" are shown in that box. Enter the name of the crashed application or process. For example, if Safari crashed, you would enter "Safari" (without the quotes.)
    Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
    ☞ The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of which is irrelevant to solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
    Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
    ☞ Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
    Step 2
    In the Console window, select
              DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ User Diagnostic Reports
    (not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of crash reports. The name of each report starts with the name of the process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report related to the process in question. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot.
    I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.
    If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a crash, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
    In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
    Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report—they're very long and rarely helpful.

  • Screen keeps jumping up and down but only when using firefox-so not a hardware problem

    The screen keeps jumping randomly up and down but nothing is being touched or pressed. The screens can be email, you tube, bank or general internet screens, or even trying to create this page

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • Screen Keeps Freezing & Sleep Wake issues

    I have a 17" Macbook Pro and the screen keeps freezing.  The computer doesnt freeze because when i depress the volume buttons i can still hear the beeps or when i hit F8 music from my itunes starts to play.
    Also,  60% of the time when my computer goes to sleep I get a blank screen when i try to wake it.  When this happens i have to close the screen for about 2 mins until the computer re-falls asleep.  Once this happens I can then wake it up. 
    any ideas on the causes of these two issues?

    Hello
    > he told me that the laptop is pretty warm.
    Probably this happens due a higher internal temperature
    Did your friend already clean the notebook?
    There is an interesting article here in forum about cleaning the cooling system of Toshiba notebooks:
