Last night while half a sleep I think I may have removed my HMDI Extender and Splitter from Windows 11 Devices and Printers by mistake... now it's not working as before, and I can't find it again.

In Devices and Printers, there no sign of it... I was half a sleep.. but I'm almost sure a HMDI Extender/Splitter was recognised there yesterday?

Also on my AMD software manager... in Global Display... it's not showing as before. It used to say "through HMDI Extender/Splitter"... but there's no mention of it now.

I've added 2 screen shots of Devices and Printers and Global Display within AMD software manager in the hope someone can help me get it all running as before.

You could go into Device Manager and see if Scan for Hardware Changes alleviates your predicament. You will need be sure of what was in that list of devices since you state being half asleep and we also don't know know of what the make and model of the splitter/extender, we'll have to take your work for it, that it existed prior and you removed it.
