I even copied it into /bin and /usr/bin - 2 places, but still won't auto execute, but it works manually in terminal.

What is the first line of your script? Is it "#!/bin/bash"? Is it marked
as executable? Is there more information you can give as to what is
happening?

Here is my rc.local file, my script is the last line;

#!/bin/sh
#
# This script will be executed *after* all the other init scripts.
# You can put your own initialization stuff in here if you don't
# want to do the full Sys V style init stuff.

touch /var/lock/subsys/local
/home/Scripts/./dumon

Below is the entire content of my script;

xrandr --output VGA --auto --output TMDS-1 --auto --right-of VGA

I think it's not being found.  Did you intend
   $HOME/Scripts/dumon
??
