Hi, I have just been given a new Macbook air M2 for work, and want to set up two external monitors. It will let me set up one external monitor, the HDMI one, but I have a second monitor which has a VGA port. Is there any way I can connect this as well? I know technically macbook airs only allow one external screen but I have ready about display links or something like that that can bypass this? However I know very little about computers generally so any advice would be welcome (especially if explained very simply for me!) Thanks in advance

That is correct. You need a DisplayLink compatible USB hub or adapter and the DisplayLink software in order to support more than one external display on MBA M2.
