  1. Minimize windows on mutli desktop setup


    I'm using the small right show desktop line at the task bar to minimize all windows on the screen. (similar to win+m). I changed my homeoffice to a 2 screen setup now.



    Is it possible to change it somewhere in the settings that that will only minimize the apps on thea ctive screen (eg where the mouse is)? Kinda annoying that all open maps on the second screen get mimized as well.



    Apparently windows 7 had a function like that https://i.stack.imgur.com/hqRS5.jpg

    Move Favorites icon to desktop win-10

    Your suggestion does not work. It did work on Windows 7.

    Hi,

    Welcome to Microsoft Community and thank you for your interest in Windows.

    • How are you trying to add the favorites to desktop?
    I suggest you to try the below steps to save the favorites on desktop and check if it helps.

    • Open the Internet Explorer and minimize the screen.
    • Then go to the favorites tab and then drag any favorites that you have saved to the desktop.
    • Once you get the favorites items \ folders then you can open the favorites and check if it is opening.
    Hope this information was helpful and do let us know if you need further assistance. We will be glad to assist.
