I have surface laptop 4 AMD version, i already it replace this laptop 4 times all under warranty and reached a conclusion that there is issue with this laptop after doing the Windows update. The HDMI connection through the USB-C adapter does not work after windows update. Laptop do not detect HDMI insert at all.

I have searched for solution on the internet and never really find any solution.

Finally, i had to spend few hundred dollows to back a docking station for surface and use the HDMI port from there. I hope Microsoft can look into this problem. I replaced same laptop 4 times, all presented the same issue. It is not a HW failure. I also confirmed if i reset back to Windows 10, the HDMI will go back to normal.
