contents While the exotic diffeomorphisms turned out to be very rich, we know much less about the $b^+_2 =2$ case, as parameterized gauge-theoretic invariants are not well defined. In this paper we present a method (that is, comparing the winding number of parameter families) to find exotic diffeomorphisms on simply-connected smooth closed $4$-manifolds with $b^+_2 =2$, and as a result we obtain that $2\mathbb{C}\mathbb{P}^2 \# 10 (-{\mathbb{C}\mathbb{P}^2})$ admits exotic diffeomorphisms. This is currently the smallest known example of a closed $4$-manifold that supports exotic diffeomorphisms.
