In HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\DISPLAY, the DeviceDesc field contains the name "PnP Monitor" assigned by the manufacturer. However, as we all know, this is entirely virtual. Would it be possible to change this name to "Virtual Display"?

This helps when switching displays, especially in VNC.

Your suggestion

Disable a specific VD via hotkey
