    Windows 10 Dual Monitor Icons Secondary Monitor


    I am using windows 10 and dual monitors. How can I have all system icons e.g., clock, notification center, etc on my secondary monitor? It used to be possible but now I can't choose where to have the icons or move them manually.

    :)

    Single monitor=no transparency in Start menu on dual monitor system

    Hello, I can't find any information about this one so here it goes.

    My Windows 10 is a dual monitor system and I don't get this problem when both monitors are enabled but when I game I disable the secondary display and then on the primary display the Start menu will lose transparency. It makes me sad. Windows 10 Dual Monitor Icons Secondary Monitor :(

    I have installed color profiles for both displays and set them as primary profile for each one. I have also calibrated the color of both displays.

    Primary display is AOC 2460 connected with DVI-D

    Secondary display is Acer G246HL Connected with HDMI

    Graphics card is Nvidia Gerforce 1050 TI 4GB and it has latest drivers

    Operating system is Windows 10 Pro v. 1803 (OS-build 17.134.228)

    Steps to reproduce:

    • On dual monitor system disable secondary monitor
    • Open Start menu and transparency will be lost
    Additional information:

    CPU overclocked with multiplier but was at Stock settings when OS was installed

    GPU overclocked with Asus GPU Tweak II

    Desktop icons - dual monitors extended view...

    I am using Winows 10 with a dual monitor setup - extended display option. My laptop is the main monitor. I cannot get all the desk top ICONS to appear on the main monitor (this was the case some time ago but I cannot get to look that way now).

    Even though the main monitor (laptop) is not full of Icons some portion of the total destop ICONs always shows up on the second monitor. BTW - the same ICON always appear on the secondary monitor.

    How can I get get all ICONS on the main monitor only in extended view?
