Hello,
I experience problems under Win10 with having programms, especially firefox open on the same monitor as the taskbar - it often seems to open on the right monitor for a second but then switches to the other one. I checked "move newly opened app window to current monitor", checked "force application to run on same monitor" in the taskbar symbol properties, and tried a trigger to open on same window as mouse cursor, but it somehow gets confused all the time.
Does anybody have similar issues or even a solution?
Cheers

hi, i followed the steps and opened firefox on the second monitor, and as usual the window jumped back to the first.
I also opened the explorer on the first monitor, then on the second, which still worked, but when trying to open it again on the first it will keep opening on the second monitor.
the time was 22:30.

Thanks! Could you try creating the Trigger rule again (like the attached screenshot), then send another debug log?

first: thanks for the fast replies, your effort is really amazing.
I tried that trigger, it fixes the explorer problem but not the firefox problem,
but meanwhile I figured out what causes the firefox issue:
I have my firefox set to show all windows and tabs from the last session on startup -
as soon as I change this to start with the homepage it seems to work!
I also have a workaround for still using this option: I created a second profile in firefox and
configured the desktop and taskbar-icon on my second monitor to start with this profile -
that way firefox windows will still stay on the monitor the icon is on.

P.S. if a logfile would still be useful to you, just tell me and I'll create another one
No worries, thanks for the update! I will test Firefox with that option and see what I can find out.
