    Help: Is there a way to automatically switch to Second Screen only based on the app that is...


    As the title says, I have a two monitor setup (laptop and external monitor via HDMI) which is great for work. However, when I play games, I have to manually switch to second screen only, and back to extending the screens when I'm done gaming.

    Is there a way to automatically switch to second screen only based on which app is running? (and also back to extending displays once the app is no longer running)

    I tried searching for a solution but every result comes up with forcing an app to work on a specific screen.

    Thank you!!
