Annoying DisplayLink Update



A recent update to DisplayLink driver (version 10.3.6400.0) causes Dell Docking Station D6000 to completely ignore power settings in Windows 11.

The result is that the docking station no longer connects monitors, not just after locking the screen, but when the device goes to sleep.  This is usually after about 10 minutes.

This forces a person to disconnect and reconnect power to the docking station to get it to recognize the monitors again.  An alternative is to disconnect the docking station from the laptop.

A better alternative, is to change power settings to NOT turn off the screen, when plugged in.
