  1. Dual Monitor Screen Lock


    I have dual monitors set up that work fine; however, when I lock my screen then come back, everything I have open is piled up on the Primary monitor, and I have to move everything around again to where I had originally placed everything. It is time consuming and annoying. Is there any setting I can adjust to prevent this from happening? I would love to be able to unlock my pc and everything be in the same place it was when I locked it.

    :)
