To turn off dual screen mirroring, go to your display settings. On Windows, right-click the desktop and select 'Display Settings,' then choose 'Duplicate these displays' and change it to 'Extend these displays' or 'Show only on 1/2.' On Mac, go to System Preferences > Displays, and uncheck 'Mirror Displays.' This will stop the content from displaying on both screens simultaneously and allow you to use each screen separately.
