  1. Windows + Taskbar move to main monitor after standby


    I have 2 monitors, A is my main (connected via HDMI), B is my secondary (connected via DP). B has my taskbar.

    Whenever my computer returns from standby, all open windows + taskbar move to my main monitor A



    I've heard this is an issue with monitors connected via DP, but my previous setup was the other way around (main DP, secondary HDMI) and returning from standy all windows + taskbar went to main monitor



    Help?

    Windows + Taskbar move to main monitor after standby

    Restore window issue in Window 10 1903 when extra Monitor

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    To have a better clarity on the issue and guide you accordingly, kindly help us with the following information:



    • Is the issue specific to DBeaver or does it happen on all the applications?


    The issue could probably be because of the secondary monitor not having its own taskbar. I suggest you to try the steps listed below and check if it works.



    • Right click the Taskbar on your primary monitor and choose Taskbar Settings.
    • Enable Show Taskbar on all the displays under
      Multiple Displays,
      and exit Settings.
    • Now, try restoring a minimized window to see if it works.


    Regards,
