sorry if this is the wrong place to post about this, but lots of people here use it.

i have a pc which i use for both normal pc work and to run my projector from it, i would like a command which changes primary display from monitor to projector, and then detaches the secondary (monitor)

DISPLAY1 = monitor
DISPLAY2 = projector

the best i got was this:

dc.exe -monitor="\\.\DISPLAY1" -quiet -more -detach
dc.exe -monitor="\\.\DISPLAY2" -quiet -apply -primary -width=1280 -height=720

but when it is run, the projector becomes primary but does not detach the monitor.

any help?

You might try changing the order of the commands.

Same here, I dont' think you can detach the primary monitor, so you should probably run the primary command on display2 BEFORE running the detach on Display1.
