Try 'xrandr --help' for more information.

I think you need to look at the xrandr man page for a few examples of how to use the command. You could even try 'xrandr --help' for more information. The error messages that you are getting seem clear enough to me.

You really have to learn how to use man pages if you are going to use command-line tools in Linux. In a terminal type "man xrandr".

I think your Windows question is best asked as a separate question in the appropriate Windows forum.
