  1. Lock app windows on specific monitors


    Hello everyone,

    I have 3 monitors connected (Asus xg32vq, Dell u2311h and Samsung TV 43" 4k).

    When I'm not watching smth on TV, I switch it completely off by disabling the monitor in windows settings (extended desktop -> disconnected). Also, when I watch smth on TV, I power off the other 2 monitors. Anyway, when I do either of the 2, app windows change positions. How can I lock specific windows to specific monitors?

    Also, when I power on the Asus one (headphone jack in i/o included), I hear the new device connected and discord identifies that a new audio source is connected. How can I switch that port off?

    Thanks

  2. Lock a specific app

    Is there a way to lock the settings app somehow?.. like making it prompt a pin/password or something when opening to access

    Windows is locked with a pin and a password (signed into ms account) already.. but i need a way to lock a specific app (in this case i want to lock settings (with control panel as well if required..))
