Windows 10: Multi monitor How to make windows 10 open apps on the monitor corresponding to the...

I just setup a second monitor. What I want to know is if there is any way to have Windows 10 open apps on the monitor corresponding to the taskbar/start menu I use to launch the app?


So if I launch an app from the taskbar/start menu on monitor 1 it open said app on monitor one. But launching the same app from the taskbar/start menu of monitor 2 opens the app on monitor 2 this time instead of monitor 1.

Windows 10 KB3213986 Update Cripples Multi-monitor Gaming

The recent Cumulative Update for Windows 10 (KB3213986) cripples multi-monitor gaming, looking at the way Microsoft worded its "known issues" text. After the update is applied, users with multi-monitor setups could experience screen stuttering or clipped screens when running 3D apps on machines with more than one monitor. The only workaround Microsoft suggests for now entails running your 3D apps in non-fullscreen modes, such as windowed-maximized (pseudo-fullscreen) or windowed modes. Microsoft also goes as far as to suggest that people with multi-monitors could try starting their 3D apps with just one monitor connected.

"Users may experience delayed or clipped screens while running 3D rendering apps (such as games) on systems with more than one monitor," the change-log for the KB3213986 update reads. "To work around this issue please consider the following options: 1. Running the application in Windows mode (not full screen), or 2. Starting the application with only one monitor connected," it adds. The update effectively cripples multi-monitor gaming, using technologies such as AMD Eyefinity or NVIDIA 3D Vision Surround.

This should be enough to get the conspiracy theorists suggesting that Microsoft is intentionally crippling multi-monitor support in fullscreen mode since games sold on the Microsoft Store all work in the pseudo-fullscreen mode...

Or it could just be an idiotic bug that will be fixed in time.

 

Windows 10 multi-monitor setup: how to open program in current monitor, not the last one?

Hi everyone!

There is something in Windows 10 (and 7/8 too) that bothers me too much. In my multi-monitor setup I have Windows 10 logo button (aka Start Menu button) in all monitors.

When I'm in monitor 1 and click on a Microsoft Word shortcut, for example, it opens on monitor 1.

If then I close it and reopen Microsoft Word by clicking on the same shortcut as before, but now in monitor 2, it will be opened on monitor 1 (the last monitor wherein it was closed).

Is there any way to ALWAYS open a program windows into the current monitor where the program is started (by their own .exe or shortcuts) regardless of which monitor it was closed last time? Any tricks?
