Regarding programs opening on the wrong monitor, you can create a Window Location rule to force all new windows to open on whichever monitor the mouse cursor is on. Please see the attached screenshot :)

Unfortunately there isn't a way to force which monitor they get created on.

WHAT A PAIN IN THE A$$. Opening an app on a remote monitor is a pain when that monitor is not the main screen (prob. almost never is)

While we're at it, is there a way to force newly created or copied files or directories to be forced to appear on a certain monitor? I have a fourth monitor in another room and that's the monitor that the new icons/dirs are being placed. Help! Guess I can just "move" the fourth monitor to the "left side" of the group on my desk, but WHY can't I just have it the other way?? ]]> RE: Launching programs on current monitor greyed out? https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/launching-programs-on-current-monitor-greyed-out/?ID=4590d88c-1e7e-418d-86eb-815f0ac83547#3 Fri, 05 Jun 2015 06:16:33 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/launching-programs-on-current-monitor-greyed-out/?ID=4590d88c-1e7e-418d-86eb-815f0ac83547#3 DisplayFusion Ok thanks for the reply! :) ]]> RE: Launching programs on current monitor greyed out? https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/launching-programs-on-current-monitor-greyed-out/?ID=4590d88c-1e7e-418d-86eb-815f0ac83547#2 Thu, 04 Jun 2015 01:57:55 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/launching-programs-on-current-monitor-greyed-out/?ID=4590d88c-1e7e-418d-86eb-815f0ac83547#2 DisplayFusion We had it disabled for Windows 8 because there wasn't a way to work, and we haven't had a chance to investigate it in Windows 10 yet. If we can make it work in Windows 10, we'll re-enable that option :) ]]> Launching programs on current monitor greyed out? https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/launching-programs-on-current-monitor-greyed-out/?ID=4590d88c-1e7e-418d-86eb-815f0ac83547 Wed, 03 Jun 2015 04:41:00 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/launching-programs-on-current-monitor-greyed-out/?ID=4590d88c-1e7e-418d-86eb-815f0ac83547 DisplayFusion Windows 10 Pro Build 10130
DisplayFusion Pro 7.2 Beta

The option to "Launch Start Menu shortcuts on current monitor" is greyed out for me both in DisplayFusion and Window taskbar Properties>Navigation tab. Under the navigation tab the entire "Start Screen" field is greyed out.

Probably a problem with windows 10, but just to be sure I thought I'd post here. If anyone knows how to fix it, or if it can be fixed even(at this time), I would greatly appreciate some help! :(
