Windows 10 - Disable third monitor automatically when it's powered off

$

I have three monitor outputs from my video card: monitor 1, monitor 2, and a projector.

The Windows display settings looks like this:enter image description here

If the projector is turned off, and I move my mouse to the right of the 2nd screen, it disappears and gets lost in the projector's view, even though the projector is turned off.

It's frustrating when I lose my pointer, but even worse when Windows is placing windows there, so I have to alt+tab+win+left to bring them back in. Some windows can't be moved with win+left so I have to turn on the projector, or pull the HDMI to get a hold of them.

  • I know I can disable the monitor manually
  • win+P can not disable one out of three monitors
  • The projector is a BenQ 3D DLP W1070+

Is it possible to automatically disable the third monitor/projector in Windows if it's turned off?
