I know there are some knowledgeable hardware people around here. Hope someone can clear something up for me.

I've got a new laptop with a Thunderbolt 3 (USB type C 3.1 Gen 2) port (the manufacturer says: The Thunderbolt 3/USB type C port for the Element has support for DisplayPort(DP) connections), an old AOC LCD VGA monitor and bought an adapter so that I could connect this monitor. However the laptop does not detect the monitor. The adapter is Type C 2 in 1 HDMI+VGA adapter that says it's compatible with Laptops with USB-C output. The Amazon link for the adapter says:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07PCKQWCX/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Wide Compatibility】2018/17/16 New MacBook Pro, New MacBook Air, MacBook 12, 2018 New iPad Pro 11/12.9, 2018/17 iMac/Pro, Dell XPS 13, Surface Book 2, Samsung Galaxy S8/S9/Plus/Note 8/9, HUAWEI Mate 10 / Mate 10 Pro / P20 / P20 Pro Pixelbook, Chromebook, Intel NUC, HP, Acer, Lenovo and many others *with USB-C DP ALT Mode* (See Product Description)

Shouldn't this work? Is there something I am missing?
