    Hello,


    I've 2 screens connected to my PC.

    My PC has two users with 2 different accounts MS accounts not local.


    I've set up the taskbar configuration I want on my account 1st. The configuration is working fine even if I reboot the computer, but if I log into 2nd account and then log to 1st account again the configuration of taskbars for this 1st account is broken.


    It's even more strange because in the 2nd account the configuration works absolutely fine.


    On the second account the configuration is default taskbars on both screens, on the down edge of the screens, action center and system tray on the 1st screen - that is set up as main screen


    My configuration of 1st account that is being broken after switching users is that on the 1st screen main the taskbar is on the left edge, on the 2nd screen the taskbar is on the right edge, and action center and system tray are on the 2nd monitor.


    The next problem is that if I open action center it's not apperaing on the 2nd screen where it is on the taskbar, but on the main 1st screen.


    Have You ever expirienced this problems and found the solutions?

    I've been googled it, but I've found nothing.

    :)

    Windows doesn`t start. Authomatic repair doesn`t work.

    Thanks again!!

    I`m sorry I had not noticed that the text on the picture was in spanish. It says that windows has replaced some damaged clusters in "name" file and "directory". Then, at the end "an unspecified error occurred (75736e6a726e6c2e 4f6)".

    I`ll do it and I`ll be updating this thread when I have the report.

    I ran SeaTools. These are the results:

    Change the location of taskbar on multiple display Windows 10

    Hello Peter,

    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    Let me answer your query regarding taskbar location on multiple displays.

    Do you have multiple monitors connected to the same computer?

    Please be informed that right now there is no option to change the location of taskbar to the scenario which you mentioned.

    As this is the option you would like to see in windows 10, you may provide your suggestions in the feedback app.

    It will be directly referred by our developer’s team for further improvement.

    Follow the steps:

    • Go to Start, enter the phrase Windows Feedback, and then select Windows Feedback.
    • See if someone else has given similar feedback by entering the topic, such as Microsoft Music.
    • If you find similar feedback, select it, add any details, and then select Me too.
    • To narrow your search to a specific category, pick the category that most closely matches your feedback (so it gets to the right people quickly). For example, for feedback about the Music app, select Apps > Music.
    • If you don’t find any similar feedback, select New Feedback, and choose a topic from Select a category and then select a subcategory.
    • Enter your feedback (the more details the better!), add a screenshot if you can, and you're done.
    However you may follow the below steps to change the location of the taskbar (changes the location on both the monitors to same place) and check.

    1. Right click on the taskbar and click on properties.

    2. Select the taskbar tab.

    3. In the “Taskbar location on the screen” drop down list you may select your preferred location and click on apply.

    Hope the information helps, do reply if you need further assistance.

    Thank you.
