I note though that sometimes, some windows or apps will briefly appear on the wrong monitor before showing on the correct one.
Don't suppose that can be tweaked out? ]]> RE: Open windows programms where the mouse is https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/open-windows-programms-where-the-mouse-is/?ID=f25f82cc-2ced-42b1-9e03-b5ee3e7101e1#11 Tue, 31 Jan 2023 20:22:57 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/open-windows-programms-where-the-mouse-is/?ID=f25f82cc-2ced-42b1-9e03-b5ee3e7101e1#11 DisplayFusion No worries, glad to hear it.

I hve been using this app for ages, but it still manages to show me new features. :)
Thank you Keith, it definitely solved my problem. ]]> RE: Open windows programms where the mouse is https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/open-windows-programms-where-the-mouse-is/?ID=f25f82cc-2ced-42b1-9e03-b5ee3e7101e1#9 Mon, 30 Jan 2023 19:47:44 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/open-windows-programms-where-the-mouse-is/?ID=f25f82cc-2ced-42b1-9e03-b5ee3e7101e1#9 DisplayFusion Try this out:

  • Right-click the shortcut on the DF taskbar
  • Choose "Edit this Pinned Item"
  • Disable the "Force application to start on same monitor" option and click OK, then Save

That should fix it up, but please let me know if not.

Thanks! ]]> RE: Open windows programms where the mouse is https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/open-windows-programms-where-the-mouse-is/?ID=f25f82cc-2ced-42b1-9e03-b5ee3e7101e1#8 Fri, 27 Jan 2023 15:40:52 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/open-windows-programms-where-the-mouse-is/?ID=f25f82cc-2ced-42b1-9e03-b5ee3e7101e1#8 DisplayFusion Hi,

This feature is working most of the times, but there are some scenarios where it does not. My monitor setup: left side-built-in laptop + middle-4k + right side-UW. The UW is my main monitor. (The trigger suggested by Kieth is set.)

E.g.: I have a pinned app on my middle monitor task bar. Say I want this window to open on the UW, so I click it and quickl move my mouse to the UW monitor. The new window appears on the UW for a second (correct, the mouse is there) - but it immediately moves back to the middle monitor, while the mouse is still on the UW. The same happens when my app is pinned on the laptop monitor, BUT if my pinned button is on the UW (main) monitor taskbar and I want it to open on any other monitors, then it happens correctly. Strange. ]]> RE: Open windows programms where the mouse is https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/open-windows-programms-where-the-mouse-is/?ID=f25f82cc-2ced-42b1-9e03-b5ee3e7101e1#7 Thu, 03 Nov 2022 19:26:37 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/open-windows-programms-where-the-mouse-is/?ID=f25f82cc-2ced-42b1-9e03-b5ee3e7101e1#7 DisplayFusion If you want to move windows that are already open, you can set a key combination on the "Move All Windows to Current Monitor" function on the Settings > Functions tab :) ]]> RE: Open windows programms where the mouse is https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/open-windows-programms-where-the-mouse-is/?ID=f25f82cc-2ced-42b1-9e03-b5ee3e7101e1#6 Sun, 30 Oct 2022 13:01:44 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/open-windows-programms-where-the-mouse-is/?ID=f25f82cc-2ced-42b1-9e03-b5ee3e7101e1#6 DisplayFusion 
This works great, however I noticed that it doesn't help for windows that are already open on another screen.

I noticed that too,This works if the window was last opened on the main screen but otherwise it does not work. Windows 11 Pro, Version 10.0 Beta 17 ]]> RE: Open windows programms where the mouse is https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/open-windows-programms-where-the-mouse-is/?ID=f25f82cc-2ced-42b1-9e03-b5ee3e7101e1#5 Fri, 15 Jul 2022 14:05:40 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/open-windows-programms-where-the-mouse-is/?ID=f25f82cc-2ced-42b1-9e03-b5ee3e7101e1#5 DisplayFusion This works great, however I noticed that it doesn't help for windows that are already open on another screen.

I have two monitors about 6ft away from each other and I am only using one or the other at any given time.

I created a second trigger with the same settings except I made the event on "Window focus"

This works amazing for me. Now, no matter what I select on the taskbar whether it's already opened on another screen or I'm opening it for the first time it comes up on the right monitor.

If you ever utilize both screens at once, then this trigger is not for you.

Thanks for the help! ]]> RE: Open windows programms where the mouse is https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/open-windows-programms-where-the-mouse-is/?ID=f25f82cc-2ced-42b1-9e03-b5ee3e7101e1#4 Mon, 13 Jan 2020 19:59:37 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/open-windows-programms-where-the-mouse-is/?ID=f25f82cc-2ced-42b1-9e03-b5ee3e7101e1#4 DisplayFusion No worries, glad to hear it! ]]> RE: Open windows programms where the mouse is https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/open-windows-programms-where-the-mouse-is/?ID=f25f82cc-2ced-42b1-9e03-b5ee3e7101e1#3 Sat, 11 Jan 2020 09:54:46 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/open-windows-programms-where-the-mouse-is/?ID=f25f82cc-2ced-42b1-9e03-b5ee3e7101e1#3 DisplayFusion Hello,

i was busy the last week.
Now i tested it, pretty nice, it works perfectly! :) ]]> RE: Open windows programms where the mouse is https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/open-windows-programms-where-the-mouse-is/?ID=f25f82cc-2ced-42b1-9e03-b5ee3e7101e1#2 Thu, 02 Jan 2020 19:51:04 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/open-windows-programms-where-the-mouse-is/?ID=f25f82cc-2ced-42b1-9e03-b5ee3e7101e1#2 DisplayFusion Could you try creating a Trigger rule like the attached screenshot? It should move all new windows to whichever monitor the mouse cursor is on.

Hope that helps! ]]> Open windows programms where the mouse is https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/open-windows-programms-where-the-mouse-is/?ID=f25f82cc-2ced-42b1-9e03-b5ee3e7101e1 Thu, 26 Dec 2019 16:27:54 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/open-windows-programms-where-the-mouse-is/?ID=f25f82cc-2ced-42b1-9e03-b5ee3e7101e1 DisplayFusion Hello,

i just bought the pro version since i use 2 monitors lately. I was annoyed as i noticed that windows multimonitoring is really bad, so looked for a softare that can handle my ideal use of multiple monitors for 1 pc.

Here we go for the request:
- When i am opening "Windows Settings" the window doesn't open where my current mouse-position is.
- I ticked the "Move newly openend application windows to the current monitor ( for standard window openings) and
- I used a trigger for the application; (see attachments)
_______

So these workarounds don't work for me, do you have any better idea to achive this?
