This is the correct place to look. There should be an option for "duplicate desktop on all displays" or something like that. You'll want to turn that off or choose whatever the other option is.

Try Function key + F8, that usually goes the option to Extend rather than duplicate

1/2 means one image is being shown on monitor 1 and 2, click it and see if you can change it from duplicate to extended display

Also your laptop may have FN buttons where one looks like []|[] press FN and that at the same time

Go into the display settings by either right clicking and empty source on your desktop and selecting display settings, or by searching for it in the task bar.

Once you're on the settings page scroll down to "Multiple Displays" and change the drop down from "Duplicate these displays" to "Extend these displays"

After you do that, scroll back up to the top of the settings window where it shows your 3 displays and drag them in the order you want them in. Click "Identify" to have windows display a number on each display, so you know which is which.
