  1. Taskbar toolbars on multiple displays?


    I've just added a second monitor (plus the laptop screen), so I'm still getting things as I need them.

    After managing to get my taskbar on all three screens, I realized that I'd also really like to get the 3 toolbars, which are on the main display's taskbar, to appear on at least one of the other displays. However, I don't see an option to add toolbars onto the taskbar for any other displays.

    Is this possible? Am I chasing an unobtainable dream? Any help is appreciated.

  2. Multiple display taskbar

    Hi Justin,

    Let me guide you now on how to set up multiple displays on a Windows 10 computer. You may follow the steps below to configure the correct display settings for your device.

    Here are the steps:

    • Right-click on your desktop.
    • Select Display settings, then different options will be displayed.
    • You can either choose Duplicate these displays to sync your activities from the original monitor with the second one or
      Extend these displays to be able to do multiple activities using separate displays.
    • After choosing your preferred option, click on Apply.

    Let us know if you have any further questions.

    Multiple columns in vertical taskbar?

    Edwin, your taskbar seems to be what I need - but I can't get how to make it...
    Could you describe step by step, in a fool-proof way, and since the very beginning, how to make it?
    I don't see how to make it by adding a toolbar (?). I made a folder on a desktop, added it as a new toolbar. So I have a new toolbar on my taksbar, and the icons of the open applications keep on being in just one column.
    What do I miss...?
