I had 4 monitors, my TV died, now I have 3. Unfortunately, Windows decided to call the TV "Screen #3." I unplugged it and now my secondary and teriarity monitors aren't displaying the corrent taskbars.

Is there an easy way to move a DF taskbar to another screen?

If not, I'll have to physically connect my broken TV back to my computer, manually write down which icons are where, and essentially start from scratch.

To reiterate: my center screen is fine (it uses the Windows taskbar), my right-side screen is now showing the taskbar from the left-side screen, and my left-side monitor is showing the taskbar from the nonexistent TV. The taskbar that was and should be on my right-side monitor is nowhere to be seen.

Thank you.

If you're comfortable using regedit, you can do the following:

  • Exit DisplayFusion (important!)
  • Navigate to the following key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Binary Fortress Software\DisplayFusion\Taskbars
  • Rename the target monitor ID (e.g. change 2 to 2_old)
  • Rename the source monitor ID (e.g. change 3 to 2)
  • Launch DisplayFusion

Hope that helps!

Awesome, thanks. This is what I was looking for.

I have a few other keys listed too: 101, 103, 301, 302. The only entries these have under them are ShortcutAlignment and ShortcutAlignmnetCombine, and one has a key named ButtonOrder with just a few entries. I have my icons where I want them now, so I believe I could delete these 4 unused keys. (I think I was playing around with splits, but I don't use them now.)

Would you concur it's probably safe to delete these? Thanks much!

Yep, those would be for the split taskbars. If you're not using the splits you can delete those keys :)
