Discus and support multiple monitors taskbar issues in Windows 10 Support to solve the problem; I can move mine manually to any display I want, even with show on all displays checked.

  1. multiple monitors taskbar issues


    I can move mine manually to any display I want, even with show on all displays checked. If I switch which monitor is set as main display it also moves automatically. I think Lock the taskbar being checked changes everything though.

  3. You right click to unlock it. To move it just click it, hold down your mouse button, and drag it to where you want it. Like you drag and drop a file or folder.

    Kewl! You're welcome.

    I was going to say I know you had nothing wrong SW / HW wise, just getting to to where you want it ...

    Please mark the thread as solved though, please.

  6. Thanks again :3 the main task bar being on the other monitor was tolerable, but being on the cintiq was just flat out annoying... Still don't know why or how it moved in the first place...

  7. I've had weird things happen when playing games that go full screen. I have a shortcut on my taskbar that does the *Start + P PC Only. I do that when playing games. Then when I'm done I have another shortcut that does the *Start + P Extend to go back to triple monitors.
