Windows 10: How do I get rid of pop up boxes in my dual monitor?

I just set up a dual monitor and every time I drag a window into my second screen I get these small pop up boxes with a 1 and 2 in them. If I accidentally drag my cursor into one of the boxes the window becomes full screen. How can I stop these boxes from popping up every time I drag a window around with my cursor?

Dialog box/pop ups opening up on the second monitor

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



I suggest you to try making the other monitor as the main display and check if that helps. Please follow the steps mentioned below:

1. Press and hold Windows key +
   I, to open Settings.
   
2. Click on System and click on
   Display.
   
3. Now, click on the other monitor on which you want to see the prompt.
   
4. Scroll down and click on the check box Make this my main display.
   

Hope it helps.



Please reply with the status of the issue, we will be glad to help you further.
