Upside Down in Windows? How to Rotate Your Screen (and Fix It!)

Ever found your Windows screen inexplicably rotated sideways, upside down, or just plain wonky? Don't panic! It happens more often than you think, usually due to a stray keyboard shortcut or a graphics driver hiccup. Luckily, rotating your Windows screen back to normal is a breeze.

Here's the lowdown on how to fix it:

**Keyboard Shortcut (The Quick Fix):** Try pressing `Ctrl + Alt + [Arrow Key]` (Up, Down, Left, or Right). Keep experimenting until you find the right combination to bring your screen back to its rightful orientation.

**Display Settings (The Reliable Method):** Right-click on your desktop and select 'Display settings'. Look for the 'Display orientation' dropdown menu. Choose the correct orientation, usually 'Landscape', and click 'Apply'. You'll have a few seconds to confirm the change before it reverts.

If neither of these works, consider updating your graphics drivers. A faulty driver can often cause display issues. With these simple steps, you'll be back to viewing your screen the right way up in no time!
