    Suddently cant drag windows between monitors without it being stuck on the edge


    I'm often dragging windows between my monitors and it used to work absolutely fine. I was able to both drag the window back and forth between the monitors and use the multi tasking snap feature by stoping my mouse at the edge of the screen.But suddently I cant do it anymore.

    How can I drag a screen display onto an adjoining satellite monitor?

    Hi Stewart,

    In order for us to assist you dragging a screen to your satellite monitor, you can follow these steps:

    • Move the cursor off each of the four screen edges to see if one of them works.
    • If it does, position the monitors in the Display > Screen Resolution window
      to match the physical placement of the monitors.
    In the event that the previous steps failed to work, you can try these:

    • In the display settings just swap the
      Display1 and Display2 Monitors.
    • Drag the Monitor1 display icon and
      drop it on Monitor2 display icon, this would give you the correct alignment of screens.

    Don’t hesitate to contact us if you have further inquiries.
