When I launch the Start Menus on any monitor other than the Primary, as soon as I start typing the name of the app, the Start Menu jumps to the Primary monitor. As such, I'm unable to launch apps on the other monitors.

I can't find the option to "Launch Start Menu shortcuts on current monitor" (www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/opening-applications-in-current-screen) -- it does not seem to be available. But I do have this checked: Window Management > "Move newly opened application windows to the current monitor."

Please see the first point on this post: https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/windows-1011-known-issues/?ID=e71e1f5e-9e07-4f7d-b179-22253db2c30f

If you create a trigger in DisplayFusion that uses the "Window Created" event, you can add in all apps (*.*) to the Process Filename match condition, and then use the "Move window to mouse cursor monitor" action, and it should move any window opened to the monitor your mouse is currently on.

Hope that helps!
