Changing Extended Desktop

How can I change the direction of the extension for my extended desktop? I
am using a laptop and an external monitor. The desktop is now extended to
the right side, but I would like to change it to extend to the left side.
The option was first presented on the initial attachment of the monitor, but
I cannot find an option to change it now.

Right click on your desktop and select Personalize then click display
settings.
On the display settings window you should be able to see your monitors
listed (1,2 or 2,1).
Click on the right monitor icon and drag that to the left or
alternatively click the left monitor and drag right. This will change
which side your monitor extends to. Hit apply and voila!
