Virtual Desktop Now Supports Multiple PC Monitors (www.uploadvr.com)

How many monitors are supported depends on the headset. Meta Quest 3 is the only headset that can support 3 monitors at once. On Quest 2, Quest Pro, Pico 4, Pico Neo 3, Vive Focus 3, and Vive XR Elite only 2 monitors are supported.

"But why don't you just get a bigger room and more monitors then?"

The optimal solution however is having programs float separately wherever you want in 3D space without having to be constrained to virtual "monitors".

I used to own a Windows Mixed Reality VR headset. That's how its window management works, I can have a browser, terminal and code editor windows float separately.

the mouse cursor traverses between these windows seamlessly.

it has its downside though, now you need to manage the position of those windows in 3d space, moving and organizing these windows can be tedious.

now i just use a single large resolution screen in Virtual Desktop. (coming from immerse and VD's multiple screens)

edit: looking back at some of the WMR footage, I still wish we can use the WMR platform with Quest 3. I do miss those time
