Windows 10: How to Show Taskbar on Side Monitor Only?

Hello,


I was wondering if there was any current way to show the windows taskbar on only the side monitor, and not the main display. I have a dual monitor set-up with monitors 1 and 2:


---------------- ------------------------

1 2

----------------- ------------------------


where I want monitor 2 to be my main display with no taskbar, and monitor 1 to be my side display with taskbar. I checked the taskbar settings, and it only seems to allow me to have taskbars on all displays, taskbar only on main display, or auto-hide taskbar on all displays. If anyone knows of a workaround, please let me know. Thanks!

Taskbar on second monitor on Win7

Anyone know of some good freeware app that will add a taskbar to my second monitor and only show apps on that monitor on its taskbar? I was using Ultramon in XP but wondering if there's something better for Win7. Thanks.
