Start menu is stuck opening only at the left position on my secondary monitor.

I am also using Start10 with modern style (non windows 10 default start menu): on my main monitor I have the correct start menu style, thought on my secondary monitor i have the default windows 10 menu.

Is it possible to download the 7.3 Beta 2 back?

DF V7.3 Beta 3 on Windows 10 x64 Professional.

Sure do like the way the Start Menu now opens directly on the monitor that the user has activated it from via the Start icon...no jumping from the primary monitor to the selected monitor.

Very nice enhancement within Beta 3 for Windows 10 8)


Unfortunately this just broke with v7.3 Beta 3 (I installed it ~20 minutes ago). Now my Windows 10 Start menu always opens up on the left of three monitors (where the Windows primary taskbar is). Up until this update it would open up there briefly, then switch to the correct taskbar's monitor (where it was clicked to open).

Back to the drawing board guys.. ]]> RE: DF V7.1, Win 10x64 B9926: Start Menu menu always opens on main monitor https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/df-v71-win-10x64-b9926-start-menu-menu-always-opens-on-main-monitor/?ID=386c767a-8900-45d3-8559-850cee5460ee#22 Mon, 31 Aug 2015 18:48:52 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/df-v71-win-10x64-b9926-start-menu-menu-always-opens-on-main-monitor/?ID=386c767a-8900-45d3-8559-850cee5460ee#22 DisplayFusion DF V7.3 Beta 3 on Windows 10 x64 Professional.

  • Update to the latest 7.3 Beta
  • On the Troubleshooting tab, change the Logging drop-down to "L1: Log Minimal"
  • Restart DisplayFusion
  • Reproduce the issue and note the time so we'll know where to check in the log file
  • Send us the DisplayFusion.log and DebugInfo.html files (can be found by clicking the Open Log button on the Troubleshooting tab)
  • Disable debug logging after sending the log

What that means is, we have to wait for the Start menu to be visible, then poll to find it, then we can move it. It's definitely not ideal, but it's the best we could do with it :(

It definitely shouldn't be jumping over to the second monitor if you're clicking the button on the Primary taskbar though. Can you reproduce this reliably? If so, can you tell me the steps? ]]> RE: DF V7.1, Win 10x64 B9926: Start Menu menu always opens on main monitor https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/df-v71-win-10x64-b9926-start-menu-menu-always-opens-on-main-monitor/?ID=386c767a-8900-45d3-8559-850cee5460ee#13 Wed, 29 Jul 2015 15:14:31 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/df-v71-win-10x64-b9926-start-menu-menu-always-opens-on-main-monitor/?ID=386c767a-8900-45d3-8559-850cee5460ee#13 DisplayFusion Hi, I didn't want to open another thread.

I am having similar issues with latest version of display fusion 7.2 on windows 10 64bit.

When I click on start button the start menu will open fine on main monitor, but when I click on start button on the display fusion taskbar, the start menu will open on my main monitor then jump to the second monitor I'm trying to open it on.

Sometimes it will do that and get stuck on the display fusion taskbar, even when I'm clicking the start menu icon on my main monitor.

Windows 10 has been all fun and games so far:) ]]> RE: DF V7.1, Win 10x64 B9926: Start Menu menu always opens on main monitor https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/df-v71-win-10x64-b9926-start-menu-menu-always-opens-on-main-monitor/?ID=386c767a-8900-45d3-8559-850cee5460ee#12 Tue, 28 Jul 2015 18:28:25 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/df-v71-win-10x64-b9926-start-menu-menu-always-opens-on-main-monitor/?ID=386c767a-8900-45d3-8559-850cee5460ee#12 DisplayFusion Excellent, glad to hear it! ]]> RE: DF V7.1, Win 10x64 B9926: Start Menu menu always opens on main monitor https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/df-v71-win-10x64-b9926-start-menu-menu-always-opens-on-main-monitor/?ID=386c767a-8900-45d3-8559-850cee5460ee#11 Mon, 27 Jul 2015 19:31:12 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/df-v71-win-10x64-b9926-start-menu-menu-always-opens-on-main-monitor/?ID=386c767a-8900-45d3-8559-850cee5460ee#11 DisplayFusion This issue is fixed in the newly released 7.2.
