    Quicklaunch buttons on taskbar on 2nd monitor


    Hey guys,

    Is it possible to get the quicklaunch buttons from my main taskbar also on my second monitor taskbar?
    Now here's the catch: I do not want to mirror the taskbars i.e., I would like to keep the windows that are active only on the taskbar from the monitor the window is on.

    Mirror taskbar results in 2 taskbar buttons on both taskbars for the same window.
    The other two options for taskbars are perfect for what I want, yet the quicklaunch buttons disappear when I select one of those...

    Now, I also now that Displayfusion has this function, but that program is such a resource hog...
    Also tried Ultramon but that also doesnt have this function.

    Thanks all!

    :)

  4. Quicklaunch buttons on taskbar on 2nd monitor

    Windows 10 taskbar icon changes size randomly

    Thanks Greg. My bad, I should've stated initially that I'd enabled a quicklaunch tool bar on my taskbar. The icons in the quicklaunch are causing the problem. I've checked the graphics driver and it seems to be updated.

    • I'm not using any tweaking software to customize windows. I'd reduced the size of caption buttons in windowsmetrics
    • Scaling is set to 100%, unfortunately I cannot reduce below 100% (this is my need)
    • Taskbar icons set to small size
    Please advise..

    Thanks in advance
