If you are using the same profile for each monitor profile, it will load them to the same spot. You'll want to create a second profile with the icons on your second monitor, and attach them to that monitor profile, and it should work.

Hope that helps! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/desktop-icons-not-showing-on-secondary-monitor/?ID=12f8b20c-36bd-4935-8f6c-1a2d331bd3dd Sat, 11 Mar 2023 18:52:13 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/desktop-icons-not-showing-on-secondary-monitor/?ID=12f8b20c-36bd-4935-8f6c-1a2d331bd3dd DisplayFusion Hi there,

I have configured two monitor profiles one for primary and one for secondary. I also have created a desktop icon profile. In my "Manage Monitor Profiles", I have set this desktop icon profile to both monitor profiles but after switching to my secondary monitor profile, the desktop icons are not showing on the secondary.

I thought I followed the Help guide correctly but it just wouldn't work?

Thanks for any help! ]]>
