  1. Set monitor for specific programs


    I've bought a 2nd monitor today and I just cant figure out how to set a monitor for different programms.

    I want to play shooter on my main screen and racing games on my other. I think Windows needs to be able to set something like this. Or is there at least a programm that can help me out ?

  2. Set specific programs to open on the 2nd Monitor

    Hi,

    As of yet, there is no specific option that allows you to set certain programs to open on a specified display monitor. Programs open on whichever display monitor is chosen as the main monitor.

    For advanced troubleshooting, we suggest that you post your query in our
    TechNet forums
    where we have experts who are more knowledgeable regarding the matter.

    Let us know how else we can help.
