We can find out desktop resolution of a computer from command prompt using wmic command. The below command prints desktop resolution for all the available monitors on the system.
wmic desktopmonitor get screenheight, screenwidth
Ex:
C:\>wmic desktopmonitor get screenheight, screenwidth ScreenHeight ScreenWidth 900 1440 900 1440 c:\>
The above output shows that there are two monitors connected to the computer, each having the resolution 900×1440.
The below is the output on another system connected to two displays having different resolutions.
c:\>wmic desktopmonitor get screenheight, screenwidth ScreenHeight ScreenWidth 900 1600 1080 1920
Thanks for this! :)

You should be able to do this in a batch script by capturing the output of the wmic command in a variable and then check for it’s value.
How to change screen resolution with cmd without using third party tools
Nothing as such I am aware of.
Is there any command to duplicate the same display to the second monitor? or do vice-versa i.e Remove duplication and extend second display on the other monitor
Can you please let me know how to change resolution using cmd?
If the commands posted above does not work on Windows 10 machines, try the following

I need to set my display resolution to 1024 x 768 . How do I do this in a straightforward manner?
Hey. I recently got a computer (Dell Inspiron with 15.6″ HD display) and I have it hooked up to a small tv, (Emerson 32″ -I think.) But I’m not able to find a command prompt to fit the resolution. I’m trying to learn this, but it’s not very easy to find books on coding and such.
Is it possible to get the scaling dpi default on the windows VM?
