  1. Change Start Menu location based on number of monitors


    I have two desktops (work and home) with more than one screen, on these computers, I would like my start menu on the far right side of the right screen.

    However, on computers with only screen (my laptop), I would like my start menu along the bottom.

    Is there any way to set up an IF statement that places the start menu in a location based on the number of screens or, worst case, stop that property from updating across computers?

    :)

  2. MULITPLE DISPLAY WINDOWS 10

    Not trying to move files. Teying to move one screen shot to other monitor. At the moment rhe screen shot appears on both screens and there is no option to have each monitor as a separate. Umber 1 and 2. Number 1 is the notebook and number 2 is both monitors.
    There is no menu box to change the number on one of the monitors.

  3. Drag and Drop pdf on Multiple Displays

    My mistake.

    This happens when I save a pdf from a web based program to my desktop. Can i change the exact location of where it is saved to be on a select monitor?

    To stop syncing your settings across PCs, have a look at this: https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/4...a.html#option4

  5. I guess that start menu location is under the "Other Windows settings" slider?

    Any idea what else is there? Like I said, I only care about the start menu location, everything else I'd like to sync (not to mention if I could set up some sort of script that looked for number of monitors connected and adjusted accordingly, that would be awesome)
