Laptop Lid Problems

[trt]

I have a large monitor attached to my laptop, but when I open then close the lid of the laptop, my screen goes sideways, and very difficult to control the mouse, to turn off.

I have attempted to click on the right side, and drag to bring back, but no luck.
Any help please,

You can rotate your display by pressing Ctrl, Alt and an arrow key at the same time. (Ctrl, Alt and 'Up' should put it in the normal position).

Thanks Chris, just done it, great.

Where can I find all these tips on the keyboard?

Most Windows keyboard shortcuts are here
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/126449/keyboard-shortcuts-for-windows
although, oddly, that one for rotating the display doesn't seem to be listed.

Tips for those with a mischievous streak in them can be found here though ;-)

Thanks for that Chris, that one for rotating the display, is in the 2nd link.
